Is it possible to post the Html source code from the web-page?
If too much code to add in this thread, send me a private message with the Html source code and bold out or highlight the area of content you want to retrieve.

Hi, Just wanted to say thanks for the code. I modified it to grab any text between <td> and </td> tags.

This is very cool. Any way to modify this so that it can batch process a list of URLs? i.e. copy/paste a list of urls into a textbox and have your code loop for each url and spit out results per line into another text box or file?

>>This is very cool...
Then start your own thread And Not spam someone else's thread. Sucks not to be able to edit past 30min., right?:D
