Download HTML

[tuxmartin]

I need to download this HTML http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6943408/version.html and save the content into a variable => version := '1 .0 '
I tried download http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6943408/version.html in wget and save to text file and then open this file in Lazarus.

How can I do without wget?

  try
    LSHTTPGetText('http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6943408/version.html', VVersion);
    if VVersion.Text <> '' then
      Edit1.Text := VVersion.Text
