Thanks Oleg. After some Rnd, now the same page is coming on post response. Their are programs that work through such sites via desktop application. What am I lacking, that I get wrong results? Their must be something to work with these sites also. Any idea or suggestion would be of great help. If you want, I can pass you the code.
Please help me. I see in this site, you and other experts have helped so many people. Please.
