Read html code from where? A file? Your app.'s code lines?
Post html code sample that you want to display in your wb.

See if this helps.
Dim x As String = "<p><img src=""http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-happy114.gif"" alt="""" title=""www.freesmileys.org"" />Hello World</p>"
x &= "<center>"
x &= "<span style=""font-size:25px;font-weight:bolder;"">From </span>"
x &= "<a href=""http://www.daniweb.com/""><img src=""http://images.daniweb.com/logo.gif"" align=""middle"" border=""0"" alt="""" title=""DaniWeb IT Discussion Community"" /></a>"
x &= "<br /><br /><img src=""http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-happy020.gif"" alt="""" title=""www.freesmileys.org"" />"
x &= "<br /><img src=""http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-happy110.gif"" alt="""" title=""www.freesmileys.org"" />"
x &= "<br /><img src=""http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-happy095.gif"" alt="""" title=""www.freesmileys.org"" />"
x &= "</center>"
WebBrowser1.DocumentText = x
Basically, you have to set a String and only set the .DocumentText of the wb(WebBrowser) once.
