I got the solutions,thanks for your help.

create a new WebClient object

WebClient client = new WebClient();

string url = "http://testurl.com/test.php";

create a byte array for holding the returned data

byte[] html = client.DownloadData(url);

use the UTF8Encoding object to convert the byte array into a string

UTF8Encoding utf = new UTF8Encoding();

get the converted string

string mystring = utf.GetString(html);
