I can do the equivalent of this, using REALbasic and the RB HTMLViewer: (1) Go to http://www.google.com/. (2) Type something in the search box. (3) Click on "Google Search."
That's not really what I do, however. I "cheat" and do something like this: Searchword = "REALbasic" URL = "http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q="; + Searchword + "&btnG=Google+Search" I then go to that URL with the RB HTMLViewer, and that produces the same result as what I would have gotten if I had done (1), (2), (3). Here's my problem. I'd like to be able to do the equivalent of the following, using REALbasic and the HTMLViewer: (1) Go to http://rottentomatoes.com/. (2) Type something in the main Search box. (3) Click on "Go." But I can't use the previous method to do that, because the URL stays the same at that site (i.e., "http://rottentomatoes.com/";). If the Web page were using frames, I could probably figure out how to do it, but that is apparently not the case. I have an idea that the answer may involve some knowledge of HTML and/or JavaScript, but I hope that it's not enough to make this an off-topic question. (As usual, I have lots of ideas of REALbasic programs I'd like to write, based on this particular situation, and I do intend to make them freely available via my blog at http://traverrb.blogspot.com.) Any advice?
