I want to capture the text output from any webpage (asp or html whatever). I want to capture it to a variable and not to show it. I am not going to use iframe etc. as well.

Is there any way to do this?

Depends where you are trying ot do it. AFAIK it can't be done in javascript (at least not in the most general case).

I want tu use the text output to be stored in a variable for some use. And I am goung to use ASP for that. Can it be possible? The use might be say showing contents of the page in a different page but not effecting the flow anywhere.

Yes, I'am not much of an ASP guru but this page (http://www.asp101.com/samples/viewasp.asp?file=http%2Easp) seem to illustrate how to do what you want.
