I interact with copier interfaces quite a lot and the process of backing up the data involves going through various pages and typing what I see there into a text file. I have always thought it would be great to write an app that can do it for me, but I have never been able to scrape anything more than the HTML text displayed on the page.
I will have to look into ways to use Javascript to do it. If it requires already knowing what the values are though, I'm afraid I might meet with unsurpassable difficluty.

It depends on the site you are scraping. You can also (possibly) use a service that can yank that for you. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
