HttpWebRequest myHttpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url); // Sends the HttpWebRequest and waits for a response. HttpWebResponse myHttpWebResponse = (HttpWebResponse)myHttpWebRequest.GetResponse(); if (myHttpWebResponse.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK) Console.WriteLine("\r\nResponse Status Code is OK and StatusDescription is: {0}", myHttpWebResponse.StatusDescription); // Releases the resources of the response. myHttpWebResponse.Close(); } catch(WebException e) { Console.WriteLine("\r\nWebException Raised. The following error occured : {0}",e.Status); } catch(Exception e) { Console.WriteLine("\nThe following Exception was raised : {0}",e.Message); } }
public static void GetPage(String url)

// Creates an HttpWebRequest for the specified URL.
HttpWebRequest myHttpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest)

HttpWebResponse myHttpWebResponse = (HttpWebResponse)
myHttpWebRequest.GetResponse();
