Retrieving HTML Tags position

How can you retrieve in VB.NET the position and its height and width of an html tag, where the tag does not have these settings specified in its source. In other words the html tag was positioned using the flow of the page not by absolute positioning

Thanks

You don't. First of all, different browsers are different sizes, and
different screen resolutions. Unless you use Styles for absolute
positioning, there's no way to find out.
