after displaying the webpage i am using documnet property of webbrowser control to obtain the html page(htmldocument object).

now there are some links on that page of which htmlelement object i want to access.i am not able to use the property (gethtmlelementbyid)of htmldocument object because there is no id in html code.(as shown belove)

VB.NET: 
<html>
<body>
<input type="textbox" name="textbox1">
<a href="http://localhoest" class="bhavin">hiiii</a>
</body>
</html>

so anyone tell me how do i get the htmlelement object of this link on my page in vb.net application so that i can resume my job from there.

Peculiar you didn't notice GetElementsByTagName method. You can also get it with Links property.

something like this:
VB.NET: 
dim links as HtmlElementCollection 
links = me.Webbrowser1.Document.GetElementsByTagName("a")
'or
links = me.Webbrowser1.Document.links
GetElementsByTagName is also a method of HtmlElement, so you can get a narrower collection if that helps the collecting.
