If you want to show the file as "parsed HTML" then you can use the line mode browser which has a very simple HTML presentation widget. If you want to handle the HTML using some other parser then you need to register that parser so that it gets the data from the libwww. This is exactly the same as the line mode browser does so you can see how this is done there (it's all in the file "LineMode/src/HTBrowse.c"). If you just want to down load the file but not parse it then you can use the command line tool which does exactly that. The only difference between the line mode browser and the command line tool is that the former has an HTML parser whereas the latter doesn't.
