WebRecorder TagExtractor vs VBScript

While I'm new to Macro Scheduler and Web Recorder as well as VB Script, I've managed to learn alot the last few days.

One of the things I like about Web Recorder is it's ability to get various Tags and allow you to use them in your Script.

I know that "IE_ExtractTag" is a function of the IEAuto.DLL and as such, it does the cool stuff of reading a page and allowing you to extract data by addressing it as a TAG etc.

Is it possible to do this in VBScript? I'm sure it will be easier in MS, but I couldn't help but be curious about whether something like this could be duplicated in VBS or not.

Thanks!

Yes, it is possible to do it in VBScript. The following script shows a basic ExtractTag function. Unlike WebRecorder it cannot handle frames.
