[snipped nice clear explanation]
cool - I think I get it now ;-) here's another problem, which I could have sworn
I've seen an example of, but now can't find:
tse: read http://...blah...blah...blah.....
I know I can find (manually) the strings (rebol wildcards shown)
Last Traded</FONT></TD><TD WIDTH=100><FONT SIZE="2" FACE="Helvetica,
Arial">*
Net Change</FONT></TD><TD WIDTH=100><FONT SIZE="2" FACE="Helvetica,
Arial">*</FONT>
somewhere on this page. I need to get what * is in each case. I've tried things
like:
ltrade: copy/part (find tse " ") (find tse {Last Traded</FONT></TD><TD
WIDTH=100><FONT SIZE="2" FACE="Helvetica, Arial">})
but this obviously doesn't work... prob. because I don't understand what (number
series port) means here:
>> help copy
Returns a copy of a value.
Arguments:
value -- Usually a series (series port bitset)
Refinements:
/part -- Limits to a given length or position.
range -- (number series port)
/deep -- Also copies series values within the block.
Thanks for your help!
