Welcome to AutoIt.

Look in the help file for the _IE* functions. You can work with the DOM objects, which is more reliable but more complicated, or you can just get the page HTML with _IEBodyReadText() or _IEBodyReadHtml() and try to extract what you want with String functions.

The complexity of the web page will determine how hard it is.

Hope that helps.

#include <IE.au3>

$oIE = _IECreate ("http://www.wordlinx.com/login.php?set=y")

$str = _IEBodyReadText($oie)

$signo = "+"; looking for this

$pos = StringInStr($str, $signo); find the sign +

; using the msgbox only for view

msgbox(0,"",StringTrimLeft($str, $pos + 3)); end the operation with ?

MsgBox(0,"",StringTrimleft($str, $pos - 4)); begining of numbers of the operation

$final = StringTrimLeft($str, $pos + 3)

$inicio = StringTrimLeft($str, $pos - 4)

But how i can select the text between "end" and "beging"? and convert to string

You pulled the Text, which could work, but if there isn't enough information from that to pick out what you want use _IEBodyReadHTML() instead, then you can search for specific strings in the HTML tags that will find what you want.

Looking more long term, you will want to learn to use the Document Object Model (DOM) to do this kind of thing in future projects, but reading the HTML should work for now.
