Webbrowser control

Hi, I'm using Webbrowser control with .NET 2.0, Can you tell me how I can autosave the web page after navigation successful? Hung.

Write an event handler for the WebBrowser.DocumentCompleted event that accesses the document content via the WebBrowser.Document, WebBrowser.DocumentText or WebBrowser.DocumentStream property and uses one of the return values to save the document.

I have saved DocumentText into a file, but when loading this file using web browser, the webpages' images disappear. How can I auto_save the web page as the SaveAs function of WebBrowser? Thanks, Hung.

I'm afraid there is no build-in support for this (at least not without user interaction). The HtmlDocument instance returned by the WebBrowser.Document property exposes an Images property that returns a collcetion of all image tags of the document. Retrieve the image URLs (shown in the documentation of the HtmlDocument.Images property), download them by using a child of the WebRequest class and then finally save them.
