First I check if somebody else solved this problem before because I am not stupid and dont want to reinvent the wheel again and again. Why not? Maybe the wheel you reinvent will be more suited than previously (re-)invented wheels and thus stay a"round" longer (yuk yuk). :-D I think what people are trying to tell you is that screen-scraping is a slog and maintaining programs that screen-scrape is doubly (or triply) so, to the extent that you end up going from "big feature" to "big PITA" to "big relief" when the suffering ends. That is the real answer. That is the real wheel. =2D-=20 Thien-Thi Nguyen GPG key: 4C807502 (if you're human and you know it) read my lisp: (responsep (questions 'technical) (not (via 'mailing-list))) =3D> nil --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlPTJkIACgkQZwMiJEyAdQIdYwCfcoka75WqXZTPMcUauMFOZSb2 q20An1yWcZ8SJcJrzpFWRt2Q5S5y25uZ =oSMK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=-- --===============1413868774042167629== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline
