hi, when u click at the link which i mentioned, you will find: 'search [Nucleotide] for [ ]' when u'll paste a gi id e.g. gi|5104821|dbj|AP000061.1| in space after 'for', a page will open where u will see highlighted accession id: AP000061. when u'll click at this, a default information page will open which contain gene and sometimes chromosome name for this sequence.in this case, many genes r displayed, n all are required. there cases when even gene name is not available...... what i need is these genes n/or chromosome names if available if i supply a list of such gi ids' and get info in a list in the same order as that of gi ids..... could u plz help me? thanx -aditi

Asking once is enough. ;-) Could you describe the data you want from that url for those of us with little or no knowledge of the problem domain. For example, I ASSume you want a script that uses a number like 5104821 above as data in the form at the url above. That will return a page. What data do you want from that page?
