Hey, you guys are thinking my ideas. Stop it.
I saw our marketing people just browsing the net. They would read urls from a
newspaper and then type them in a browser and then visit and sort of note what
was what. What a waste I thought.
I almost had it. But the javascript would not give me the url of the bottom frame.
I created a page which created 3 frames. 2 on top and one big one on the
bottom. You could enter a url in the top left frame and click a button and it
would open in the bottom frame. If you wanted to save that url then you click
another button. And this is where it begins.
You click a button which gets the url of the bottom window -- (sure easy if you
manually enter every url but the idea is to surf and just grab an url that you
don't even know what it is).
Given the url of the bottom window you open a cgi that uses LWP to get that
url and then parse the file (seek all email addresses and other stuff). I then
creates a new window that is a form for that url. You have the url, the title of the
page, all email addresses, and a version of the page without the html. The
marketer then just edits what he wants out of that form and clicks on a button
and all that data goes into a rdbms.
I just haven't found out how to get that url (I don't want to go manual). The cgi
with LWP is simple.
Does anyone know how to use javascript to get that url. I got a security error.
