Is this possible?

Download a webpage source without using a browser and place in to a textbox ready to edit and post(stop page/image load times)

Any help guys?

You will want to look at the httpwebrequest class and its methods. You can feed it a URL and get back the source (page) to do with as you will. The MSDN articles that come up of you google httpwebrequest will help you.

Since already in my code.snippets, see if this helps.:)

Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        TextBox1.Text = getCoolHttp("http://www.daniweb.com/members/codeorder/811140")
    End Sub

    Private Function getCoolHttp(ByVal selCoolUrl As String) As String
        Me.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor
        Try
            Dim myResponse As Net.HttpWebResponse = Net.HttpWebRequest.Create(selCoolUrl).GetResponse '// connect.
            Dim myStream As IO.Stream = myResponse.GetResponseStream() '// get.
            Dim myReader As New IO.StreamReader(myStream) '// read.
            Dim webContent As String = myReader.ReadToEnd
            myReader.Close() : myStream.Close() : myResponse.Close()
            Me.Cursor = Cursors.Default
            Return webContent
        Catch ex As Exception
            Me.Cursor = Cursors.Default
            MsgBox("Connection Error.", MsgBoxStyle.Critical)
            Return Nothing
        End Try
    End Function
