Hello everybody.

Anybody knows how we can download a whole web page using AppGameKit?
Can we use HTTP command? Or do we need something else?

I wanted to download a webpage using AppGameKit, then parse through it.
But all I can find is a command to GetHTTPFile.

Any idea?

Looks like SendHTTPRequestASync( iHTTP, szServerFile ) can only request specific files from a website.
Can it also download the whole webpage? I can't find a way

AGK can't call DLL, so i can't download webpages using urlmon.dll...

You can request the HTML file.
If it is dynamic (e.g PHP), you will get the final output sent as a file.

Check the example code in the help for GetHTTPResponse()
And don't forget you are requesting a secure page so the SetHTTPHost will need the corresponding flag setting.
