Q. How would I go about getting the html from a web page on the net?
A. You have two options. You can use the built in socket support in ScriptBasic or use the cURL extension module.
ScriptBasic Native
ON ERROR GOTO SiteError
OPEN "allbasic.info:80" FOR SOCKET AS #1
PRINT #1,"GET http://localhost/ HTTP/1.0\n\n"
WHILE NOT EOF(1)
LINE INPUT #1, page_line
PRINT page_line
WEND
CLOSE #1
END
SiteError:
PRINT "The web server allbasic.info on port 80 is not available\n"
cURL Extension Module
Example on All Basic (http://www.allbasic.info/forum/index.php?topic=49.0)
