Sure it's possible, just use HttpWebRequests/Responses to extract the page source, then parse the resulting source til you are left with that value, then set the TextBox's text property to that value. If you don't know how, just PM me a link to the webpage and I'll write it for you.

Yeah Thanks i will try it to solve it by myself , if i cant do it i will PM you for help...

edit : I can`t do it LOL..i will pm you ..

textbox1.text = webBrowser1.Document.GetElementByID("TextID/DivID").InnerText;
Or something..

Make a webbrowser , call it webbrowser1 ( it will be called that as default )
Set the url to the webpage

then make a button or timer or w/e which will copy it

, then make

Code:

Textbox1.Text = Webbrowser1.Document.GetElementsByID('Get the id of the text by using inspect element in chrome or opera).Innertext

Also look at this tutorial , it have some webbrowser commands ..

All credits goes to lolland for the tutorial

Why the fuck would you put in a webbrowser for something as simple as this :/ it's not like he has to click anything so there are no excuses.

Uh, just download my Web Scraping toolkit and it's easy as crap. WebClass.GetPageSource("website here") then use WebClass.GetBetween("thepagesource", "some crap on the left of what youwant", "some crap on the right of what you want").Value to get the value you need.

Cause webbrowser is more stable and has common sense ( Not completely stable , only if you launch the code before the page finishes loading

can be fixed by adding some codes in Webbrowser#_DocumentCompleted )

Herp derp, it's less efficient, slow, has crappy click noises, unstable, events are pathetically inaccurate, memory used is not worth the benefit from being lazy.

Less code? I could get the info in 2 lines of code if I used my ToolKit (which is simply a wrapper class so you don't have to do the bulk of the coding) but lines of code should NEVER, EVER stop you picking a superior solution over an inferior one, that's just poor coding habit.

stable? more like waste of memory, time and resources. For some users it might be open to exploits if they are using an outdated version of IE or have not installed updates since the control is just an IE wrapper.

Already Solved Thank you Guyz!

Marked solved then.
