Passing x509 certificate to website

I am hoping that someone can explain this to me. I am trying to get the contents of an https webpage, I can view the contents of the webpage easily when using a browser but not when using html agility.

Question is how can you pass a certificate to the webpage so that it knows its okay to display the information that you need? Does someone have a sample on how this is done?

I have done tons of searching but others seem to have the same question and no answers have surfaced. I guess since this is a new area for me I have a lot of questions, but an example that works will go a long way in understanding how this all works together.

When I look at how this takes place in a browser its like magic. You hit the website, then you see a spinning java circle, the certificate appears in the address bar, the information appears in the browser. What in the world just happened in the communication back and forth?


Thanks
