httpwebrequest

Hi

I trying to get page from this url: YandexMarket

but WebClient and httpWebRequest throw exception

Illegal characters in path.

HttpUtility.UrlEncode doesnt work for this symbol "-".

Firefox and other browser are correctly open the page.

Here is my code:

public string GetPage(string url)
{
    var wReq = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
    return new StreamReader(wReq.GetResponse().GetResponseStream()).ReadToEnd();
}

How i can get the page?

Sorry guys. All ok.

Dynamic Type to do away with Reflection

The dynamic type in C# 4.0 is a welcome addition to the language. One thing I’ve been doing a lot with it is to remove explicit Reflection code that’s often necessary when you ‘dynamically’ need to walk and object hierarchy. In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
