Thread: Grabbing the source !

  1. #1
    Guest
    I'm using the WebBrowser component to display web pages.

    What I want to do is grab the source (HTML) from a page and make it available to the VB app.

    Any ideas on how to do this ?

    Thanks in advance.

    Why dont you use the Internet Control and download the source yourself.

    Hope this helps
    ok, so... windows takes 1 minute to search for a file on my PC yet google.com takes 1 second to search the entire internet?

    Not sure what you mean by "download the source yourself".

    I want to open a URL, grab the source code from that page and then have VB step through it and pull out any instances of <A HREF="mailto:___@___.___">.

    An email-address-grabber !

    Ack! Sounds like a spammer tool to me.

    Well, you;'' have to download the source yourself to a temporary file such as
    myfile.tmp
    and then search the file for the arguments your looking for.
