Web Scraping scripts and applications will simulate a person viewing a Web site with a browser. With these scripts you can connect to a Web page and request a page, exactly as a browser would do. The Web server will send back the page which you can then manipulate or extract specific information from." And Wikipedia's article on same. Go figure. Removing the double quotes in the first URL fixed both. Last edited by zmjezhd; 09/29/2006 1:21 AM.
