Consider the following scenario. You use the
System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser control in the Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 to host
a Web page. The Web page contains one or more Microsoft ActiveX controls. In this scenario, the arrow
keys do not work when you try to interact with the ActiveX controls.
This problem does not occur in a Windows Forms application that uses the
WebBrowser ActiveX control instead of the
System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser
control.
