Ive looked everywhere: How do i download HTML for a web page?

I know you could do thin is VB 6, but i cannot find anything on any webpages for VB.net

thats C# :p

But more importantly, it is .Net. Look at it, you can figure out what classes they use to get the source.

OK, I did a quick translation... I don't guarentee the work though, it was from my head.

VB Code:

Public Function DownloadURL(url As String) As String
Dim returnString As String
Dim req As WebRequest = new WebRequest.Create(url)
Dim res As WebResponse = req.GetResponse()
Dim totalBuffer As Integer = 0
Dim buffer() As Byte = new Byte(128)
Dim stream As Stream = res.GetResponseStream()
totalBuffer = stream.Read(buffer,0,128)
Dim strRes As StringBuilder = new StringBuilder("")
 
Do While totalBuffer <> 0
    strRes.Append(Encoding.ASCII.GetString(buffer,0, totalBuffer))
    totalBuffer = stream.Read(buffer, 0, 128)
Loop
 
returnString = strRes.ToString()
 
Return returnString
End Function

ah much thanks, i gotta play with it a little

In .NET , you shouldn't have any problems switching between .NET Languages since they use the same Framework and CLR . Below my sig. a tool that help you converting From/To VB.NET Code To/From C# Code.
