[2005] What is equiv of WebBrowser1.documenttext in AxWebBrowser1?

[OnlineNoob]

I'm trying to accomplish something in a COM axwebbrowser control similar to accessing webbrowser1.DocumentText property of the built in .NET web browser control.

Does anyone have any idea how I can place the entire contents of the HTML file displayed in a COM webbrowser control into a string?

As the documentation for the WebBrowser.Text property says:

This property is not supported by this control.

If it's unsupported then there obviously is no equivalent in the ActiveX document viewer control.

sorry jm, i've updated the question to try and help explain what I'm trying to do. sorry for the confusion :-/

If I'm not mistaken you'd need a reference to the unmanaged MSHTML library, cast the control's Document property as the appropriate type from that library and then access the source from there. I believe that the AxWebBrowser.Document property exposes the same object as the WebBrowser.Document.DomDocument property. If you read the documentation for the HtmlDocument.DomDocument property it will give you an idea of how to proceed.
