Here’s a quick way to retrieve the textual (that is, without any HTML tag) contents of a WebBrowser control:
Dim Text As StringText = WebBrowser1.Document.Body.InnerTextGetting the HTML text is a tad less intuitive, though:
Dim Text As StringText = WebBrowser1.Document.documentElement.OuterHTMLThe following procedure let’s you save the contents of a WebBroser control to a file, as plain text or HTML text:
Sub SaveWebBrowser(WB As WebBrowser, ByVal FileName As String, _ Optional SaveAsPlainText As Boolean) Dim Text As String, fnum As Integer If SaveAsPlainText Then Text = BW.Document.Body.innerHTML Else Text = BW.Document.documentElement.OuterHTML End If ' save to file fnum = FreeFile Open FileName For Output As #fnum Print #fnum, Text; Close #fnumEnd Sub
