Bizzaro Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I have searched but could not find my answer. I would like to be able to connect through the Autoit script, to a website(without the browser open) and then pull the text/code inside, into a GUI. I know how to use and create GUIs but I need someone to point me in the right direction on how to connect direct from the autoit script to a website/server and pull the little bit of text. Think of it like I want to pull the updates from a streaming twitter widget on a wordpress website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcat127 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Look at '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>> also look at _IEBodyReadText in the help file for another way of doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnOne Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Last time I checked _IE* functions needed a browser. Inet* or _Http* functions. AutoIt Absolute Beginners Require a serial Pause Script Video Tutorials by Morthawt ipify Monkey's are, like, natures humans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcat127 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) Yes, but they do not have to be opened in the foreground. Which is what I am assuming the op actually meant by "without the browser open" Edited January 23, 2014 by dcat127 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somdcomputerguy Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) I have searched but could not find my answer. I would like to be able to connect through the Autoit script, to a website(without the browser open) and then pull the text/code inside, into a GUI.If whatever text is in a page's source code, it can be processed by AutoIt, which can do other kinds of web stuff as well. See this thread for more about that - '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>> Edited January 23, 2014 by somdcomputerguy - Bruce /*somdcomputerguy */ If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
