I have an interesting question.

I wrote an Access application a year or two ago that I'm looking at rewriting 
as a web app.  One thing I'm not sure I can move over to a web app is a tool I 
put together to let the users extract data from web pages.

In the Access App, I open a browser window, they can log into the secure site, 
find the page with the data they need, then click a button and the program then 
takes the HTML source, parses out the necessary info and then loads it into the 
local database.

Does anyone know if this is possible to do using PHP or JavaScript.  Using an 
IFrame would be perfect, but since the site they want to extract the info from 
is on a different domain this doesn't appear to be possible.  Anyone have any 
idea's of how I could do this?  The big obstacle is just finding a way to get 
the source code of the web page being viewed.

Thanks

Mike
