Get HTML of .aspx page

Hello All,

before some days I was working with the .aspx pages and got in the situation that I needed the source of the page from code.

I am posting this small code snippet might be useful for others also

(Note:- There might be some issue while getting html source from the web page due to some network settings like proxies and secure sockets.)

//this creates a request to a web page.

HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)HttpWebRequest.Create("url of webpage");

//use this for obtaining settings of network

request.AuthenticationLevel = System.Net.Security.AuthenticationLevel.None;
request.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;

HttpWebResponse responce = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
Encoding encoding = Encoding.GetEncoding(responce.CharacterSet);

//gets responce in the format of stream

Stream stream = responce.GetResponseStream();

//use StreamReader to read the stream contents

StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(stream, encoding);

string content = reader.ReadToEnd();

then you can use this obtained string content for any purpose like writing to a file.

Please suggest me If you find some improvements to be done in this.
