Browser screenshot as bitmap in WP7

Question

I'm trying to get the screenshot of a given URL as a bitmap image on the Windows Phone. The WebBrowser class does not seem to have the DrawToBitmap method.

Any pointers on how to get this working?

Answer 1

You can't take a screenshot of the WebBrowser Control as there seems to be a bug with the way it works with WriteableBitmaps. An alternative method could be to send the URL to a web service which takes a screenshot on the server and returns it back to your app.
