I was wondering whether you guys could help me out. Im writing a autoit script to get a number of contacts emails out of a webpage. I need it to search for the word email and then copy the bit directly after that onto an excel spreadsheet (Dont worry guys im not a spammer). Can anyone tell me how to do that? Sorry im a real n00b at autoit.

Also are there any hotkeys in internet explorer that would allow me to search a webpage for a word?

IE.au3 makes easy work of this. Assuming you already have the IE window open that has the text you want and that the title of that window is "MyWin", the following code will get the HTML from the body of the page into a string variable you can parse.

#include <IE.au3>
$oIE = _IEAttach("MyWin")
$sBody = _IEBodyReadHTML($oIE)

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?
