Kelly, there is a separate GLPRO list which has more members than the
AfterGRASP list.

Anyway, I'm replying to both.

In GLPRO, the http getvar command does not use the WININET DLL in
Windows, instead it directly connects to a web server using WINSOCK.

I assume the GLPRO code is not compliant enough (doesn't emulate a
browser well enough) to handle some modern web pages.

You can watch what is going wrong by using SET DEBUGNET ON.

One possible work around is to use VBSCRIPT to grab the web page.
You'd write the VBScript file (using GLPRO) to get the page into a
file, execute the VBScript, and load the page from disk. I know it
works because I did it quite a few years ago, but I don't remember the
specifics. Perhaps someone else can chime in with an example?
