This resolves when the browser navigates to a new URL or reloads. It is useful for when you run code which will indirectly cause the browser to navigate. A common use case would be when executing javascript that results in a navigation. e.g. clicks a link This must be called before executing the action that navigates the browser. It may not resolve correctly if called after.

Occurs when the browser address changed. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang.. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread.

Event handler for receiving Javascript console messages being sent from web pages. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang.. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread. (The exception to this is when you're running with settings.MultiThreadedMessageLoop = false, then they'll be the same thread).

Represents the method that handles the Disposed event of a component.

Event handler that will get called when the browser is done loading a frame. Multiple frames may be loading at the same time. Sub-frames may start or continue loading after the main frame load has ended. This method will always be called for all frames irrespective of whether the request completes successfully. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang.. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread.

Event handler that will get called when the browser begins loading a frame. Multiple frames may be loading at the same time. Sub-frames may start or continue loading after the main frame load has ended. This method may not be called for a particular frame if the load request for that frame fails. For notification of overall browser load status use OnLoadingStateChange instead. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang.. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread.

Event called after the underlying CEF browser instance has been created. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang.. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread.

Event handler that will get called when the message that originates from CefSharp.PostMessage

Event handler that will get called when the resource load for a navigation fails or is canceled. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang.. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread.

Event handler that will get called when the Loading state has changed. This event will be fired twice. Once when loading is initiated either programmatically or by user action, and once when loading is terminated due to completion, cancellation of failure. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang.. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread.

Event handler for changes to the status message. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread. (The exception to this is when you're running with settings.MultiThreadedMessageLoop = false, then they'll be the same thread).

Occurs when the browser title changed. It's important to note this event is fired on a CEF UI thread, which by default is not the same as your application UI thread. It is unwise to block on this thread for any length of time as your browser will become unresponsive and/or hang.. To access UI elements you'll need to Invoke/Dispatch onto the UI Thread.

This method should generally only be used in the WinForms version.

Evaluate Javascript in the context of the MainFrame of the ChromiumWebBrowser. The script will be executed asynchronously and the method returns a Task encapsulating the response from the Javascript. The result of the script execution in javascript is Promise.resolve so even no promise values will be treated as a promise. Your javascript should return a value. The javascript will be wrapped in an Immediately Invoked Function Expression. When the promise either trigger then/catch this returned Task will be completed.
