Hello Ray,
The most straightforward way of accomplishing this would be to create a
direct URL with GET parameters included, then parse out the resulting
page. By this I mean building up the query string that the site
uses to generate the page (for example, searching Google for Labview
can be done with http://www.google.com/search?q=LabVIEW). This
would require the page to use the GET method for submitting the forms,
and taking a look at it indicates that the page uses the POST method
instead. This is not directly accessible via the URL, so we'll
need to get creative. I assume that you do not have direct access
to the database that the web page generates its data from, but if you
did, that would make the operation nothing more than a command-line
call.
It seems like the purpose behind all of this is to retrieve the data
and show only what your users want. Do you have any other access
to this data besides the web page you referenced?
Cheers,
