Update on my LYNX solution. Still using LYNX - had/having some problems with the Wget installation. Still very interested in it as the alternative/better soltion than using LYNX. So I can either fiddle with Wget or continue developing my own app that scans the sports handicapping boards for odds quo...

Thanks for sharing your Wget solution. I'm seeing on reading the docs
it's a better solution than LYNX. Really appreciated.

I perhaps spoke a little too soon with my LYNX solution. It seems I'm encountering occasionally a "memory leak" continually creating and closing a DOS window and/or continually doing hardcore new data exports in the same Excel spreadsheet. If I' m not mistaken however when I was just doing web page ...

LYNX text browser alternative for HTTPRequest really works

All, I just wanted to report in on my solution to the HTTPResult really I described in this thread really seems to work now that I've developed my application with it considerably further. However, it is important to make programming considerations if the export from LYNX is "null" or some other com...

Hello All/mjtnet.com support, I wanted to share my findings or "discovery" of a nifty alternative to bringing up a web page and using HTTPRequest to get the HTML of it and/or my work-around bringing up a web page, select all, copy to the clipboard and paste (paste special) into Excel. There is a fre...

Hello mjtnet.com,

Quick inquiry if the one URL for the HTTPRequest is sufficient
or would you like a couple others at least from my perspective
I've think I've found. Again, thank you in advance for your
consideration/response. Excellent program.

Mjtnet.com Support. Thank you very much for your reply and offer to investigate the URL's/web pages I've found where (at least for me) HTTPRequest works/does not work (i.e. HTTPResponse contains the HTML code from the web page from the HTTPRequest command) HTTPRequest does not work for me in for the...

In somewhat the same regard of my previous post in this thread I find sometimes when I do a GetWindowText and I know window_title is correct from GetActiveWindow I likewise get a null result in the result variable (e.g. WordPadText). My work-around which seems to work for me is to do a Select-All an...

What I meant to write in my post is when I do a HTTPRequest on
http://www.yahoo.com ... HTTPResponse has the HTML for http://www.yahoo.com
other web pages HTTPResponse is null.

I just wanted to confirm generally speaking with Macro Scheduler that the verification or confirmation especially a web window or a window from an application say Excel has finished loading is not an etched-in-stone combination of commands but could be a combination - perhaps infinite - of WaitReady...
