sleepydvdr 8 Posted June 2, 2011 (edited) I tested your code and it works just fine. For the address you typed in, you probably was not using the FQDN sceme. Example: typing in www.yahoo.com did not work. Typing http://www.yahoo.com did work. Edited June 2, 2011 by sleepydvdr #include <ByteMe.au3> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sleepydvdr 8 Posted June 2, 2011 To compensate for people who won't know or remember, you can write a little more code that will fix that. I don't have time to test it right now, but it would go something like: $temp = StringLeft($url, 3) if $temp = "www" Then $url = "http://" & $url EndIf #include <ByteMe.au3> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
personant 0 Posted June 2, 2011 no...even though the source file was saved on the desktop, but the file is blank.. and I still cannot get the html source Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
somdcomputerguy 103 Posted June 2, 2011 The posted code works fine for me too, with 'http://', that is. W/o the 'http://' prefix, the target file is created emptily.. - Bruce /*somdcomputerguy */Â If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
