David,
You could make a request for the page from server side and get the html
response in a string.
It would be something like this:
(Copy and paste the code below to the code behind file of a page named
defaults.aspx)
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Net
Imports System.Text
Public Class _default
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
#Region " Web Form Designer Generated Code "
'This call is required by the Web Form Designer.
<System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThrough()> Private Sub InitializeComponent()
End Sub
'NOTE: The following placeholder declaration is required by the Web Form
Designer.
'Do not delete or move it.
Private designerPlaceholderDeclaration As System.Object
Private Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Init
'CODEGEN: This method call is required by the Web Form Designer
'Do not modify it using the code editor.
InitializeComponent()
End Sub
#End Region
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim WebRequest As System.Net.WebRequest =
CType(System.Net.WebRequest.Create(New Uri("
http://www.gotdotnet.com")),
System.Net.HttpWebRequest)
' Send the 'WebRequest' and wait for response.
Dim WebResponse As WebResponse = WebRequest.GetResponse()
' Call method 'GetResponseStream' to obtain stream associated with the
response object
Dim ReceiveStream As Stream = WebResponse.GetResponseStream()
Dim encode As Encoding = System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding("utf-8")
' Pipe the stream to a higher level stream reader with the required encoding
format.
Dim readStream As New StreamReader(ReceiveStream, encode)
Response.Write("Response stream received")
Dim read(256) As [Char]
' Read 256 charcters at a time .
Dim count As Integer = readStream.Read(read, 0, 256)
Response.Write("HTML..." + ControlChars.Lf + ControlChars.Cr)
While count > 0
' Dump the 256 characters on a string and display the string onto the
console.
Dim str As New [String](read, 0, count)
Response.Write(str)
count = readStream.Read(read, 0, 256)
End While
' Release the resources of stream object.
readStream.Close()
' Release the resources of response object.
WebResponse.Close()
End Sub
End Class
Sincerely,

On my site I have some content that is delivered via a js file, for example
the page
http://www.davidbartosik.com/webdesign.htm runs the following
script :
<script language="JavaScript"
src="
http://www.web-source.net/content/website.js"></script>
- the js file contains the html for the browser to render.
This scenario of course is dependant on client support.
I'm wondering if I can run this server side to get the html and then send
the actual html to the client (like to a label control).
