Hi CookieRevised,
I did ask specifically when I 1st posted my request.
quote:
I am creating a new Instant Message application of which I would like to use a screen snap shot for a button on this particular application that would show ( MSG PLUS! ) as a button link for browser navigation. How can I get permission with the capture I've made for this purpose?
CookieRevised,
"favicon.ico" files, this is something that I had not considered.
But, absolutely! GREAT idea ! I am trying to get the ADFT application out the door for tomorrow. I don't know if I've got the time to go back and make the changes to the tree right now. But, as soon as I get the 1st Beta out I intend to change it to use the "favicon.ico" files and probably some other U.I. changes.
Daniel from ( msnfanatic.com ) asked me this particular question.

Does this work by scraping the page and manipulating the data?
.
Here's my response.
********************
I use to use a well behaved Robot but I decide just to use a cached webpage from a hidden download within the ADFT app. I then parse the download webpage for identifying the content metrics for the recent Today's posting. The elements I extract are only :
1. Title
2. Date
3. Orginal Poster
4. Last Poster
5. A link into the Posting on the Forum of that specific Topic posting.
The idea is to show ( ONLY ) the most current Today's Forum Topic Listing and no other content listings of that or any of the msgplus.net Forums.
I absolutely, ( DO NOT ) modify any content on the ( msgplus.net ) website or its contents in any mode of operation.
Respectfully,
LipoToid
