    filter the html code and between certain tags like font and /font is the text on the page, dont forget css styles. then you can display the text excluding html, that way you got the text

    it basically stripped all the text from a page

    web browswer help

    I am doing a similar project for my programming class. I have to make my own little web browser with VB.Net. I just dont know what the code should look like. I want to have tags in a txt file lik notepad that change the fontsize and make it bold or color. I dont know how to get VB to interpret these tags and change the text in the text box when I open it to display it without the code.

    please help
