HTTPGET$(url$)

Description:

This function makes an HTTP request to the address URL specified in the url$ variable and returns the contents of the web page for that address if it can be retrieved.  This will usually be a text string in HTML format.

Usage:

  htmltext$ = httpget$("http://www.libertybasic.com")
  print htmltext$

Note: Sometimes if there is no page found at that address the Internet service provider may return a valid HTML document with error details.  Your program will need to detect this and respond appropriately.
