Now this is getting weird as I implemented my first agent for this in PHP as well (queue Twilight Zone music here)....
Curl is a command line tool and library for getting data from network systems (HTTP, TELNET, FTP, GOPHER, etc). http://curl.haxx.se/ it's quite handy to have for quick scripts although Rebol makes it somewhat unneeded for me now ;-) Anyway, here's the code (just a test case): REBOL [] data: read http://weather.yahoo.com/search/weather2?p=75056 results: [] parse/all data [ thru {TEXT FORECAST-->} any [ thru <b> copy field to </b> (append results field append results newline) thru </b> copy field to <p> (append results field append results newline) ] to {<!--ENDTEXT} ] print results Hope that helps!
