Drew Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Alright so what I'm looking to do... is retrieve an area of a website ... just that area... and display it on an external window ... whether it be a browser or a custom GUI <-- preferred. The area that I wish to single out is a chat room. The site is a webcast chat , and I want to JUST have the chat... I don't want to see the webcams or the rest of the sites page. ( I can't remember if I'm allowed to post external site links or not , so I will refrain from that for now. ) Description of Site: Up top you have like... 10 windows of peoples cams. ( 2 rows of 5 ).... And below that you have the chat box itself. ( To the right of this is the members list... this is not required... but could be nice. Doesn't matter. ) But initially retrieving this would be a achievement all in its self. I am reviewing the IE functions but I never deal with them , and can't seem to grasp which would help me ( if its even possible ) just by the examples given. Any insight is appreciated. ( Note: I'd be willing to do this in PHP if anyone has experience in that area. Not sure if its possible in that langauge either , but similiar issues arise. ) Thank you. P.s. I plan on doing the work myself , but if someone could answer the "is this possible" question , and maybe offer a useful function I would be very grateful... not looking for handouts .

goldenix Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 if the page is using php, then you have this option: you need the php source code for that part of the website & your own webserver with php support. & now you do not need autoit for this. Option 1) use adblock addon in firefox to just block out the content you do not like [like images/frames etc...] Another option, if the site is using only flash & javascript, then you do the same thing: open the page source, delete everything you do not like & keep what you want. & then past the source code into empty txt file & rename it to html launch it. Another option I assume there are frames? Why not simply right click on the page & choose show only this frame? Another option. you use _INetGetSource function to get the page source code every 2 seconds. You use the code to auto remove lines you do not need & input lines you need into your GUI window you have done with CODA.

Richard Robertson Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Sounds like Stickam to me. If it is, I believe the entire interface is flash. You can't really pull that apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 Richard nailed it. So is it a no go? ( I can't stand playing with flash... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
