Changing Link Program to Web Request

Changing the Link program to download a Web Request

My Link, Packt and Plural programs have been set up to manually get a webpage and this is a slow process.

I have updated the Link program to pass in a URL as an argument and then download and create the page automatically. This saves me a boring task.

The program update was more complex than I originally thought because the pages I was trying to download used a network security protocol so I was getting TLS security failure exceptions. My Original WebRequest code that I have used for years works on most websites but failed on LinkedIn and Pluralsight. To make matters worse when I fixed the LinkedIn issue it wouldn’t work with the Pluralsight URL’s. I now have it so that I can download webpages from all three websites with the same set of code.
