Capturing a web page with Labview

[billsspace]

Does anyone know of a VI that will snap a web page running in a
browser and convert to a basic gif or jpg image.

Hi billsspace,

you can use the "Open URL in Default Browser.vi" to open your webpage.

With this

you can store it as an image.

Hello Mike and thanks for the reply...I'd like to try these ideas but am running Labview 7.1 and can'r open that VI...Can it be converted or do you know another solution for 7.1?

Hi voiceburg,

i can upload a 7.1 version later. Maybe tomorrow morning.

thank you mike!

Hi voiceburg,

here is the library to read images from the clipboard. You can get your webbrowser image into there, with simulating the key press for print screen.

Hope it helps.

Mike
