Sebastien, This is probably pretty simple to do with a number of org-mode supported languages. Since I know R best, I can recommend the RCurl package (http://www.omegahat.org/RCurl/) for doing exactly as you describe.
I'll look into an R implementation of this when I get some time over break in the next couple weeks. There are doubtless other solutions! --Erik Sébastien Vauban wrote:
Hi Eric, Dan & Co, A dream here: would we have an ob-web package, we could have easy block codes for fetching some info from Web pages, possibly by giving as parameters 2 delimiters (strings or regexps), and re-arranging it into tables when it fits. Use cases: statistics from Google Analytics, prices for flights, etc. A potentiel show-stopper is, I guess, the fact that some (more and more) pages are accessible via HTTPS, like the Google Analytics ones. Is all of this do-able somehow: already, nearly, could be or never ever? Best regards, Seb
