If you get into some tricky web browser issues you can also visit the DOM with internet explorer embedded browser control.. (or firefox embedded or chromium embedded). Then you can copy whatever html table you want into whatever format you want... just visit the table via the dom, or visit any of the html web page components and deal with it. But if fast html parser does the job... it's simpler. -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org http://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
