>>>Hi All. I need to build a basic website spider in VFP. Does anyone have any suggestions or sample code to get some ideas flowing? All ideas, thoughts, suggestions, money orders welcome.

>Hi Michel. I would like to develop a VFP app which takes a "target" website homepage url and downloads the starting homepage. Then analyzes the html for hyperlinks to other pages within the same site, and then re-iterate the process looking for more and more pages on the same website. I would optionally store the html text depending on whether I found it interesting or not.
>
>So I'm guessing I would start with creating an IE object. Downld the first page and extract the links or search for "href" commands or some such. Then follow those links for more pages within the same site.

>Any suggestions or sample code like this?
