Probably a simple question but I cant figure it out. I have a webbrowser control, which navigates to a URL where it logs in, then a different URL where theres some information I need. I would like to save this page as an HTML document. I can navigate to the page easily, so is there any way to tell the webbrowser to save the current page as an HTML document?

all I want is a function like this:
[URL] but then with the option to provide username & password. I have managed to do this with the webbrowser, first logging in then go to webpage and get source code but this takes much longer than just getting the source code...
Is there any way to do this? I found this:
[URL]
I tried with &username=...&password=... in the URL but it didn't work
I am looking to go to a URL/URI download the resulting string as if I had opened a file and then get it out into a String variable.
I have been stuffing about with IO.Stream and Net.httpxxx but haven't managed to get the elements to line up in the right way.
I get "the given path's format is not supported" from opening the page in the standard stream, because it's not in the local file system ... that bit i understand, the bit I don't get is ... how do I achieve the equivelent of:
Public Function GetWebPageAsString(pURL As String) As String
Dim lStream As IO.StreamReader = New System.IO.StreamReader(pURL)
Return lStream.ReadToEnd
End Function
I read the following question to download a web page whose contents is coded in UTF-8. The page is then converted into a byte array, while I'm using a String to read contents from the page.
I need to turn UTF-8 into Latin1/ANSI since that's what RichText and MessageBox seem to use (I'm getting funny characters).
Is there a more direct way to donwload a UTF-8 page and convert it into ANSI/Latin1?
Edit: When callig MessageBox, accented characters are not shown as expected:
Content = CStr(e.Result)
'Théâtre, Métro
MessageBox.Show(Content)

I've search numerous hours, but I haven't been able to find the appropriate solution. What I want to do: Get the html of a certain webpage (Lets say in this case url...this html within my wpf application, so that you can see the content of the page you requested. Then I want to be able to trigger events on the html that has been loaded from the URL. Like I want you to be able to click on a certain node in the HTML and I want to be able to link this node to a certain value. Basically a crawler application that let's you request a page, see the page in a control and allows you to click in the loaded HTML and link values to predefined values you set. So basically I want to be able to get a webpage displayed within my application and be able to trigger events on the html (For example a click on the html which would need me to know on what node you clicked in the html, or for example be able to edit the html by clicking in it).

I have a big problem with a software I'm creating for my own use.I have code in my software that downloads the source code of a webpage into a .txt file and filters out information it's looking for. For normal HTML code this works fine.The problem is when I can't target specific parameters in the HTML code because they're too vague.I can download this kind of unique HTML code and pass the variable (Brown in this case) to Strings in my software because it's on the same line of code making it unique:
<div class="Performer_DataLabel">Hair Color:</div> Brown</div>
However I want to know how to search a specific table and its rows and cells (like this one below showing the code for 1 row and the 2 cells I'm interested in):
1. <tr>
2. <td class="paramname">
3. <b>Hair Color:</b>
4. </td>
[code]....
The question (Hair Color), regardles of how many hundreds of lines the full source code is, is always on the same line within the row of the table (line 3).The answer is also always on the same line (line 6) in the row of the table.However the question rows themselves are not always on the in the same place of the table.
This might be a strange question, but I need my project to get/download name of a html input. The html source code is:
HTML
<td><input class="text" type="text" name="ebd435a" value="" maxlength="15" /> <span class="error"> </span></td>
I need my project to get the "ebd435a".Why? Because the 'name' is changin sometimes and I wan't my site updater to works whatever the 'name' is.EIf this is not possible or to hard, does anyone know if I could make a website get the code and then my project to get it from the website?
For some odd reason, when I download text files, the HTML of the web page is being appended to the text! All other file types work fine!Here's the code that's doing the download:
Public Sub DownloadBlob(ByVal Blob As Byte(), ByVal FileName As String, ByVal Response As HttpResponse)
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", String.Format("attachment;filename={0}", FileName.Replace(" ", "_")))
Response.ContentType = String.Format("application/{0}", Path.GetExtension(FileName).Substring(1))
Response.BinaryWrite(Blob)
End Sub
