Hello Lily,

what do u wanna do?!
Get data or just browsing?!

For browsing use webbrowse control

for getting data the codesnippet below

public static string GetHTMLFromURL(string url)
{
if(url.Length == 0)
throw new ArgumentException("Invalid URL","url");

string html = "";
HttpWebRequest request = GenerateGetOrPostRequest(url,"GET",null);
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse( );
try
{
if(VerifyResponse(response)== ResponseCategories.Success)
{
// get the response stream.
Stream responseStream = response.GetResponseStream( );
// use a stream reader that understands UTF8
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(responseStream,Encoding.UTF8);

try
{
html = reader.ReadToEnd( );
}
finally
{
// close the reader
reader.Close( );
}
}
}
finally
{
response.Close( );
}
return html;
}

Hello eng.rana,

It's possibe, use HttpRuntime.CodegenDir
the only problem is that your files are not in the virtual folder - they
are compiled into
\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files\<you_app>\bla-bla\bla-bla and it's changes
time to time

so the best way is to use WebRequest with virtual path
