I bike to work every day. We sold our second car about 8yrs ago. Nice in Chch where for most of the
city there are no hills and good bike lanes.

Thats disgusting. no matter how Arrogant a cyclist is (and there are some)
that really doesn't absolve any driver from what is essentially a violation
of safe driving practices. The are so hot headed that they dont realise how
easily a cyclist can be killed. (the cyclists should remember that too

What an idiot.
I think what most of the nasty drivers forget is that for every cyclist
on the road its one less car for them to get stuck behind. However I
must admit the Dyers pass road is terrible to drive up / down
especially with the Lycra brigade riding two a breast
I'm trying to do some web page scraping using IHTMLDocument2, which is
working fairly well and I can grab the second paragraph on a web page by
doing something like:
p := iDoc.all.tags('P');
if p.Length = 2 then
result := p.Item(1).InnerText;
Where iDoc is an isnstance of IHTMLDocument2.
Do you know if the websites are xhtml - do they have anything like below
in the start of the page.
!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd;
html xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml;
If they are it would be easier to load them
Imho it is not getting stuck behind bikes that gets car drivers irate,
but the flaunting of the road rules demonstrated by cyclists. Car
drivers start thinking it is unfair every time they see one ride through
a red light, or fail to indicate, or ride double/triple, or skip from
road to footpath
Thanks Cameron,
It does indeed have that header, how do I make this work?
XMLDocument1.FileName := 'c:\temp\test.htm';
XMLDocument1.Active := True;
Gives me various errors, I suspect that that the file is not valid xml,
or is there some other way of parsing it?

Speaking as a cyclist as well as a car-driver, I mostly agree with you,
hence my mention of tolerance from both sides, and my reference to the
small minority of cyclists was basically to the type of cyclist you talk
of.
As a commuter cyclist though (and not really one of the lycra jockeys),

I've previously been working with outlook 2002, pulling

2003/2007. Does anyone know of the differences and the best way of

Given you mention .Filename property I assume you are using
TXMLDocument. Forget that and use MSXML direct - its much better, you
could load a URL direct without first downloading to a file. Import the
MSXML 6.0 to create MSXML2_TLB. You will probably find that most web
sites have xhtml tags
I ride bicycle in Auckland around 10 years. Auckland road is not fit for
riding bicycle. Most road does not have proper cycle way. The cycle way is not
continuous. And the road suppose to ride bicycle is only around 20 cm wide and
shared with cars. And car runs very fast. It is so easy to be

I hate to disagree Leigh but
Your much more likely to die on the footpath ! Don't do it. If you
check the stats you will find by far and away the most accidents occur
on the footpaths (cars reversing and pedestrians).

I agree, The small % of cyclists cutting red
Are there any Delphi users on this list actually using Delphi right now or
are we all too busy drooling over Apple products that Delphi doesn't support
and getting our knickers in a twist over road transport issues?

But since everyone else has chimed in, my contribution on the cycling
* however I would say I see more cars cutting reds than cyclists, not

every

. am I the only one that found myself imagining some scene from TRON playing
out on the streets of Christchurch ?
haha.. I drooled over the iPad for the time frame of 1 day while chatting..
now I'll ignore it until I see a price.
I used to love cycling in Auckland before I had to raise my child alone and
ran out of time. Mission Bay to Mt Albert was always a good ride. Lots of
bad drivers to be careful of,
Ouch.
The only time I've actually been knocked off my bike was by another
cyclist. ;-)
Using Delphi today? Sure. Although most of today was spent testing on
VPCs and watching builds run.

Thanks, although it looks like the html documents are not xml compliant,
so I'll probably have to either parse the file manually or continue
experimenting with IHTMLDocument2 (and hopefully find some documentation
for it).

Also using Delphi today - mostly looking for clean ways of
parsing/scraping html. Yesterday I was learning Rails however. I'll
either continue learning rails tonight or start sanding the toilet.
Suffice to say that rails is much more appealing - boy I know how to
party on a Friday night.
