[Release] Web Scraping Toolkit (Class Library)

Hey guys, spent a little time tonight knocking up a class library to include some of the major functions I like to use to make various web-scraping project. I only added really general functions to this library as you'll obviously need to make some custom shit depending on the information you need from each webpage, but these will sure make it easier.

Features in this Library:

How to use the class
First you need to reference the library (Project -> Add Reference -> Browse -> Locate Dll)

Next, you should import the namespace
[highlight=vb.net]
Imports WebClasses
[/highlight]

Now to create a new instance of the class:
[highlight=vb.net]
Dim wClass As New WebClass
[/highlight]

Now you call the classes methods from your instance of the class (I documented all the methods, so you'll be able to see their functionality when you use the library)

Anyway, I made this for myself as I do lots and LOTS of webscraping, and got sick of rewriting a lot of functions. But, I hope this assists others.

The one's you said in MSN were deemed useless by me. Like I said in MSN, I've never EVER even formed a half thought of using one of those functions. So why spend time writing the function? This library allows me to scrape sites with steez and ease. If you can't do it...too bad for you. Although I do remember when I first wanted to scrape sites you told me to use a streamreader and go through the page line-by-line

No, you won't. You'll say you will, fuck around for a while then never release anything. What happened to your 5 "epic releases that will pwn this section" and the Uber Advanced WebBrowser tutorial with GeckoFX?
