Visual Basic, Saving web pages to file using webBrowser or inet control

Saving web pages to file using webBrowser or inet control

Author	Message
JJ #1 / 2	Saving web pages to file using webBrowser or inet control I am using Visual Basic 5.0(sp3) under win95 and want to navigate to a web page and download it to a text file. (The resulting web page is a plain text file). I use "webBrowser1.navigate sUrl" to go to the page and the page appears ok, but how do I save this result to file. I do not see an available property or method for this. If I try to use the inet control using the command "inet1.openurl sUrl" I get an http 404 error, file not found but I know the sUrl address is correct because the webBrowser or netscape or IE display it correctly. The sUrl is " http://www.--*.com/ :443/930954003850?User=demo&Pswd=demo&DataType=DA... bol=aol&Interval=60" I have also set the inet1.remotePort property to 443 but this still results in a 404 error. Any suggestions on how to save this web page or similar pages to a file?
