This is just to help me learn a little about getting data from the web.

Example of site to retrieve data:

http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fullscreen.html?n=136

Source:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<title>London, United Kingdom - current and accurate time</title>
<meta name="description" content="This fullscreen or popup-window displays a clock showing current time in any time zone in the world.">
<meta name="keywords" content="clock, time zone, local time, international, current, big clock, large clock, date, time, count, counts">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://c.tadst.com/common/wstyle.css?17" type="text/css">
<script src="http://c.tadst.com/common/fullscreen2.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<style type="text/css"><!--

.t100 {width:100%;height:100%;}
.tab {margin: 0 auto;}
body {overflow:hidden;}
#navz {float:right;}
#navz a {font-size:85%;text-decoration:none;color:#999;}
img {display:block;}
#wrap {position:absolute;height: 100%;}
-->
</style>

</head>
<body onload="Frst();" onresize="Frst()" onscroll="Fgt()">

<div id=navz>

I know I want to get "<div id=i_date>" and "<div id=i_time>". I think I can use objects but I'm not familiar or I don't know anything about objects. Any help, or a step by step would be appreciated. Just seeing a code to display it on a GUI would be awesome. I do know that it should be refreshed every second being that this is retrieving time.

Look at the examples for _IEGetObById and then use _IEPropertyGet innertext

Doesn't work needs to be ripped out of the troubleshooting lexicon. It means that what you tried did not produce the results you expected. It begs the questions 1) what did you try?, 2) what did you expect? and 3) what happened instead?

$lDate = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 1, 30, 227, 24, $SS_CENTER)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 12)
$lTime = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 1, 60, 227, 52, $SS_CENTER)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 32, 600)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

Global $oIE = _IECreate ("http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fullscreen.html?n=136", 0, 0)

Maybe I am misunderstanding what is actually being looked for, but wouldn't it be quicker to just view all the hidden source code with Opera and the Inspect Element command when you right-click the page? If you just wanted to see the code itself...
