O.P. Get info from Web
I want a plugin that gets a number from a webpage...

I have been trying to use a webbrowser-control in Visual basic:

        Dim inet As WebBrowser
        Dim strInfo As String       
       
        inet.Navigate "http://some page"
        Do While inet.Busy
            DoEvents
        Loop
        strInfo = inet.Document.body.outerText

But i get an error on that when running, is not these kind of
functions/controls supported here ?

Or is there a easier way to get info from a webpage ?

Thanks

There is no outerText on a document body, only an innerText.

I see, i suppose "inet.document" is enough...

But that is not the problem anyway, the code works fine
in a "normal" exe-program but when compiled
as plugin-dll for msn+ it does not work.
