Why my app shows only a few lines of HTML-code of a webpage, and IE shows it all.

Hi there,

I have searched on the internet for examples to get the whole HTML-code of a certain webpage. Alle these examples just get me a few lines. The strangest thing is when I take f.e: Internet Explorer, right-click on it and choose Display Source in the context-menu I get a new windows with all the HTML-code of that page. When i do the same with Mozilla Firefox I get also a few lines. Does someone know why my application and Firefox shows only a few lines of code and IE shows it all. Who knows why, and how to solve this problem in my application.

Greetings, Peter Kiers

It is difficult to help you when you can't give the info to check the problem. However... it sounds like there may be an error on that page.

I have a webbrowser on my form that displays a page. When I right-click on the webbrowser and select display source in the context-menu i get the full html of that page. I have also create a button with the following code:

        private void bbGetHtml_ItemClick(object sender, DevExpress.XtraBars.ItemClickEventArgs e)
        {
            String source = ("source.txt");
            StreamWriter writer = File.CreateText(source);
            writer.Write(webBrowser1.DocumentText);
            writer.Close();
            Process.Start("notepad.exe", source);
        }

Open in new window

I get only a few lines.

How can I sove this?

And I like to mention that the website uses a frameset!

Maybe that is the problem. But how to solve this?
