how to dynamically generate HTML code using .NET’s WebBrowser or mshtml.HTMLDocument?

I’d like to contribute some code to Alexei’s answer. A few points:

• Strictly speaking, it may not always be possible to determine when the page has finished rendering with 100% probability. Some pages
  are quite complex and use continuous AJAX updates. But we
  can get quite close, by polling the page’s current HTML snapshot for changes
  and checking the WebBrowser.IsBusy property. That’s what
  LoadDynamicPage does below.

• Some time-out logic has to be present on top of the above, in case the page rendering is never-ending (note CancellationTokenSource).

• Async/await is a great tool for coding this, as it gives the linear
  code flow to our asynchronous polling logic, which greatly simplifies it.

• It’s important to enable HTML5 rendering using Browser Feature
  Control, as WebBrowser runs in IE7 emulation mode by default.
  That’s what SetFeatureBrowserEmulation does below.

• This is a WinForms app, but the concept can be easily converted into a console app.

• This logic works well on the URL you’ve specifically mentioned: https://www.google.com/#q=where+am+i.

        // start the task
        async void MainForm_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

            {
                var cts = new CancellationTokenSource(10000); // cancel in 10s
                var html = await LoadDynamicPage("https://www.google.com/#q=where+am+i", cts.Token);
                MessageBox.Show(html.Substring(0, 1024) + "..." ); // it's too long!

            while (true)
            {
                // wait asynchronously, this will throw if cancellation requested
                await Task.Delay(500, token); 

                // continue polling if the WebBrowser is still busy
                if (this.webBrowser.IsBusy)
                    continue; 

                var htmlNow = documentElement.OuterHtml;
                if (html == htmlNow)
                    break; // no changes detected, end the poll loop

                html = htmlNow;
