download XML files via webBrowser Control

[chad]

Hello,

I'm using CF to build an App that downloads XML file from a website.
I'm trying to use the webBrowser control. I want to be able to download
the XML files from the webserver to a specific local path and name on
the PDA, without prompting the user. Is this possible?

Thanks for your help!

Use the HTTPWebRequest class instead of the browser control. You will have
more control over what you want to do.

Sergey thinks for the sample code! I was wondering do you have that in
C#?

Thanks For your Help!

Initially it was written for a reply to VB.NET related question. It's
not hard to convert to C#. Just use VB.NET to C# converter, like this one:
