The problem is that as indicated in the comment line above, it appears
if you try to set the DocumentText property of the WebBrowser control
with HTML, you need to wait for the DocumentComplet ed event to be sure
it's loaded before trying to access the elements.

I found it myself. For others interested:

WebBrowser webControl = new WebBrowser();
webControl.Docu mentText = htmlstringfromd b;

do
{
Application.DoE vents();
} while (webControl.Rea dyState != WebBrowserReady State.Complete) ;

string test = webControl.Docu ment.Body.Inner Html;
