Reading the contents of a page through its URL

[Kuldeep]

Hi All,

I am trying to read the contents of a page through its URL.

My code snippet is as follows:
public void mtdGetPageDataHWR()
{
HttpWebRequest objRequ =
(HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://www.microsoft.com");
HttpWebResponse objResp = (HttpWebResponse)objRequ.GetResponse();
string strVersion = objResp.ProtocolVersion.ToString();
StreamReader objRd = new StreamReader(objResp.GetResponseStream());
string strRd = objRd.ReadLine();
while(strRd!=null)
{
Response.Write(strRd);
strRd = objRd.ReadLine();
}
}

Is there any other way to achieve this which could be more efficient or
faster than this.

Any help on this would be very handy

Thanks,

Kuldeep

Hi,

What is wrong with that code?

you could use a memorystream to store all the page in memory and then later
send it back in the response.

Hi Machin,

Nothing is wrong with the piece of code that I showed.
All I am looking forward for is an alternative method to achieve the same.
Something which could be as dynamic as a "Ctrl + F" search on a HTML page.
With which I can avoid the overkill of reading the entire data through a
Stream Reader.

Any leads on this would be very helpful

Thanks,
Kuldeep
