Convert IHTMLDOMNode to IHTMLElement?

I would like to convert an IHTMLDOMNode to IHTMLElement in C#, I have tried the following:

IHTMLElement tempElement = node as IHTMLElement;
//node is a instance of IHTMLDOMNode internface

However, this did not work -- tempElement is null. Is there a way to perform this conversion correctly? Note that in my application, I try to use WebBrowser to access every node in the DOM tree and get their coordinates.

here are my source code, could you tell me what should I do?

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using mshtml;

namespace TestWindowsFormsApplication1
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            webBrowser1.ScrollBarsEnabled = true;
            webBrowser1.Url = new Uri("http://www.bing.com");
            webBrowser1.DocumentCompleted += new WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventHandler(webBrowser1_DocumentCompleted);
        }

        void webBrowser1_DocumentCompleted(object sender, WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs e)
        {
            HTMLDocument document = (HTMLDocument)webBrowser1.Document.DomDocument;
            IHTMLDOMNode bodyNode = (IHTMLDOMNode)webBrowser1.Document.Body.DomElement;
            TranversalDOM(document, bodyNode);
        }

        private void TranversalDOM(HTMLDocument document, IHTMLDOMNode node)
        {
            if (node.nodeType == 3)
            {
                string nodeInfo = no开发者_JAVA百科de.nodeValue.ToString();

                nodeInfo += ">>>";
                IHTMLElement tempElement = node as IHTMLElement;
                //how to convert IHTMLDOMNode to IHTMLElement?

                int X1 = findPosX(tempElement);
                int X2 = X1 + tempElement.offsetWidth;
                int Y1 = findPosY(tempElement);
                int Y2 = Y1 + tempElement.offsetHeight;
                nodeInfo += " LeftTop: (";
                nodeInfo += X1.ToString();
                nodeInfo += ",";
                nodeInfo += Y1.ToString();
                nodeInfo += ")";
                nodeInfo += " RightBottom: (";
                nodeInfo += X2.ToString();
                nodeInfo += ",";
                nodeInfo += Y2.ToString();
                nodeInfo += ")";
                listBox1.Items.Add(nodeInfo);
            }
            else
            {
                IHTMLDOMChildrenCollection childNodes = node.childNodes as IHTMLDOMChildrenCollection;
                foreach (IHTMLDOMNode n in childNodes)
                {
                    TranversalDOM(document, n);
                }
            }
        }


        public int findPosX(IHTMLElement obj)
        {
            int curleft = 0;
            if (obj.offsetParent != null)
            {
                while (obj.offsetParent != null)
                {
                    curleft += obj.offsetLeft;
                    obj = obj.offsetParent;
                }
            }

            return curleft;
        }

        public int findPosY(IHTMLElement obj)
        {
            int curtop = 0;
            if (obj.offsetParent != null)
            {
                while (obj.offsetParent != null)
                {
                    curtop += obj.offsetTop;
                    obj = obj.offsetParent;
                }
            }

            return curtop;
        }
    }
}

You cannot convert when it is not an IHTMLElement.

I am not familiar with these interfaces but you might try:

IHTMLElement tempElement = (IHTMLElement)node;
