This is the function im using to download the HTML source of a webpage, it works fine.
Public Function HTMLSource(ByVal strURL As String) As String
Try
Dim wClient As New System.Net.WebClient(), temp As String, _
[code]....
Ive tried a few times to implement the above code into my function but all im getting is error messages? how to implement the above call back into my function, or any other way of making it async?
This may sound really stupid but I have to ask cause I'm not finding this answer anywhere.I have an application where the user will need to sign up for a new user account on the website [URL]..However when I am using Firefox's plug-in Firebug to view html I am getting something totally different than when I just right click on the site and view the page source.
What I am trying to do is to get the captcha from the website and display it in a picturebox on the application so the user can view the captcha, solve the captcha and then the app post is back to the service for a response.
Here is the source that I am getting using Firefox's Firebug to inspect the element:
<td>
<input type="hidden" value="Oo3Jo1I8bgzK68agMqo3s79ZZib2OkbK" name="iden">
<img class="capimage" src="/captcha/Oo3Jo1I8bgzK68agMqo3s79ZZib2OkbK.png" alt="i wonder if these things even work">
</td>
[Code]...
Why would the two be showing me two different versions of the HTML?
And how would you be able to grab that source to view in a picturebox using webclient?

View 1 RepliesThis 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?
I'm downloading a page and stripping out the HTML. I actually stripped out everything successfully, but there is something weird with the "<br />" tag..
When I try to replace <br />, I can't detect it..
Unlike other HTML tags such as <br> and such, <br /> does not show up as a text in my TextBox.. it shows up as a BOX and messes up the whole formatting.Does anybody know how I can go about removing the boxes from my textbox?

i have a code that will get a certain line from the html source of a webpage.

i can parse html source code and regex a few things, but i know the exact phrase i'm looking for do i still need a regex if i know what i'm looking for?

[code]The two parts I've coloured red change, I need to grab the first part which is the link but I'm not sure how to do this. I've used regex before and it doesn't look possible to use it on this on this, there's about 25 of these in the source.

Way to space out the source code of a web page, having each tag on one line, without having to search for each tag ending and then making a new line after.
My code for obtaining the source code is:

Also if anyone knows a way to colour the tags.
I am trying save a value from an input tag in some HTML source code. The tag looks like so:
<input name="user_status" value="3" />
I have the page source in a variable (pageSourceCode), and need to work out some regex to get the value (3 in this example). I have this so far: [Code] Which works fine most of the time, however this code is used to process source code from multiple sites (that use the same platform), and sometimes there are other attributes included in the input tag, or they are in a different order, eg:
<input class="someclass" type="hidden" value="3" name="user_status" />
I just dont understand regex enough to cope with these situations.
How do you access a web page's source code without downloading the file? i.e., downloading a .php file generally wouldn't work - I want to access the code that it would return if I was using a browser.
View 6 Repliesall 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:

I tried with &username=...&password=... in the URL but it didn't work

I am writing a program in VB.NET in Visual Studio 2010 to edit web pages that allows the user to download, edit and then upload HTML files.
To download I use:
My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile(New Uri(strSiteFileName), strLocalWebSiteFolder & strFileName, "", "", False, 100000, True)
My problem is that if the file being downloaded is an HTML file that includes a <!-- #include file = [filename] --> line then rather than just downloading, the file that is downloaded and saved actually includes the 'include' file's text, not the line to include the file. I just want to download the file including the reference line.
For example
if a file named 'footer.html' is simply one line as follows:
<p>This is the footer</p>
and a second file named 'index.html' is as follows:
<html>
<body>
<p>This is the main part of the file</p>
[Code].....
Is this a feature or am I missing something? All I want is the basic 'index.html' file to be downloaded.
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

The following code is giving me a headache. As you can see there are message boxes in there for a quick debugging tool. It displays the messagebox "Still looping" once, and then shows the form. No other code runs. Doesnt matter what I put it it just doesnt run. I can't see a problem anywhere....

View 2 RepliesI'm writing a program in VB.net that gets the source code of a web page with a video on it. it then uses regular expressions to isolate the download link of that video. then it uses "httpwebrequest" and "httpwebresponse" to download the video. my problem arises when certain sites have a page where you have to click continue in order to get to the video page. [URL].. called "The.Matrix.Reloaded.2003.mp4" so i tell my program to get the source code for the url [URL]..but it cant find the video's download link because it's searching for the file in the "continue" page's source code. you can see what i am saying by going to that website above and viewing the source code by right clicking on it. and then click continue and do the same when the video appears and you'll notice that the file is only there in the second one.
So my question is how can i get the source code for the page that the video is playing on and not the page where i have to click continue?
