unable to get html source from url

Question

I have read most of the answers with my question. But I get nothing from this url. Well, actually I'm getting " "

This is the url:

http://www.casadellibro.com/busqueda-generica?busqueda=9783126759120&nivel=5&auto=0&maxresultados=-1

My code:

System.Net.WebRequest req = System.Net.WebRequest.Create(url);
System.Net.WebResponse resp = req.GetResponse();
System.IO.StreamReader sr = new System.IO.StreamReader(resp.GetResponseStream());
string response = sr.ReadToEnd();

Any idea?

Thank you in advance.

Getting HTML code from a website. You can use code like this.

string urlAddress = "http://google.com";

HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(urlAddress);
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
if (response.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK)
{
  Stream receiveStream = response.GetResponseStream();
  StreamReader readStream = null;
  if (response.CharacterSet == null)
    readStream = new StreamReader(receiveStream);
  else
    readStream = new StreamReader(receiveStream, Encoding.GetEncoding(response.CharacterSet));
  string data = readStream.ReadToEnd();
  response.Close();
  readStream.Close();
}

This will give you the returned HTML code from the website. But find text via LINQ is not that easy. Perhaps it is better to use regular expression but that does not play well with HTML code

Thank you for your quick response. But I'm getting the same result. Data = " " – Noarge Oct 23 '14 at 13:48
request and response are passed OK? Do you have any errors when debugging? – Matheno Oct 23 '14 at 14:03
Yes, they passed OK. And no errors. StatusCode = OK, StatusDescription = OK, ContentLength = 4 – Noarge Oct 23 '14 at 14:18
