Download webpage with images

[CJ]

Can someone tell me how to download a webpage complete with images and
insert
it into a richtextbox?


Thanks

Re: Download webpage with images

How about you use a WebBrowser control instead? That should be a far
simpler task; just Navigate(yourUr l) and you're done...?

There is an actual WebBrowser control for viewing web content in your
application. I'm not sure in which version it was introduced, but Visual C#
2008 Express has one in the toolbox.


Hope this helps!

Re: Download webpage with images

I'm not sure in which version it was introduced
..NET Framework 2.0
Visual Studio 2005 (all variants)

Before then you could presumably use interop to the ActiveX facet of
shdocvw.

Re: Download webpage with images

Well I want to save it to a database too, I don't just want to view it.

There are various tools for this type of thing - a few leap to mind
that would allow you to grab a page as pdf (ABCpdf, HTMLDOC, etc). You
could perhaps try and automate the "mht" download from IE
(=shdocvw=WebBr owser), but I suspect it might be tricky.

I'm not /personally/ aware of any tools that to direct HTML =RTF
translation, but google may have some hits...

Re: Download webpage with images

It doesn't really have to be html to rtf, I want to be able to type in
a url and have my program download that specific page plus the
images and save it to a db.

that specific page plus the images and save it to a db.

Then either of the 2 cited tools should suffice; if not, post back?

Re: Download webpage with images

I was looking at this program that does something like I want, and I noticed
that they are using a webbrowser component to download and view the page.
But what are they doing to store the contents of the page to a db, that is
the
question.

Sorry, which program? Was there an attachment (if so it got stripped
by my reader)?

Re: Download webpage with images

Maybe I'm missing it, but I can't see anything in the overview for
that product that claims to anything remotely like what you have
described?

Care to ellaborate?
