How? Parsing HTML To Grab Images And Info
I need to grab product info including images from specified websites with no RSS or common structure.
I've been searching and reading articles for 2 days and have played around with grabbing html from a site and trying to find out what to do with it at that point. I think I need to parse it for the patterns I'm looking for, (creating an array out of them?) and save that information to my DB. I also want to grab the actual images and display them from my site so that the product suppliers bandwidth is not used by the pics being on my site...
I'm thinking, with my current skills which are limited, I'll be doing this with ASP (vbscript) and javascript (if necessary). I'm not great with those but good enough to figure stuff out eventually.
Can you tell me if you think I'm on the right track and recommend any learning resources specific to the skills needed to accomplish this?
If it's not too much to ask, a bit of pseudocode might keep me on the right track... what to do and when.

I've been trying to figure out how to grab Outlook information and place it on a webpage for a corporate Intranet site. I've downloaded both ASP and ASP.NET example.
I have gotten the ASP.NET example to work, but can not modify it to showmore than one day. The ASP version will not authenticate properly.
What is the best way to do this? Is there an example of how to grab information from Outlook? Is there a way to connect through SQL or export to a SQL database easily?

I'm looking for a way to grab the HTML behind one of my pages and display it
to the user. The page I'm trying to get the HTML from is an ASP page, so
obviously I'm looking for the post-asp processing results. Basically I want
the same HTML that the user could get if they had done a "View Source" in
their browser on the page.
Does IIS/ASP provide a way to do this natively, or do I have to buy a third
party component?

I have the following regular expression:
re.Pattern = "style[^=]*=[^""]*""[^""]*"""
It will grab any style attribute within HTML that uses double quotes, and put it in the re.Matches collection.Now, I want to include single quotes into this regular expression. Here's what I have so far:
re.Pattern = "style[^=]*=[^""']*(""|')[^1]*1"
but it does not work.

I am using a xml parser to retrieve and scan through some HTML from a website so that I can use VBScript operations (Left, Right, Mid, Len etc) to pick out the data that I require from the responsetext.
The code works very well and I am attempting to validate the data that the code finds by comparing it to data in a database. Below is a section of code that extracts race locations from a website. Code:

I'd like to take a HTML document as input (preferably a HTTP URL to a HTML / PHP document), render the page as a web browser would, and display the output as a graphic - kinda similar to what the <object> tag can do in HTML (i.e. within the Windows Explorer Web View, you could "Preview" HTML documents like a graphic etc.)
It doesnt matter too much whether the rendering needs to be done in VB.net or ASP.net - although I'd prefer ASP.net!! To be honest, the only method I can think of for doing this is to open the page in an IE window using vb.net, take a sceenshot and resize! But as the request could be run as and when,
I think that it'd add a large workload to the server if it has to launch a (reasonably large) .exe every time!! Plus that method would also rely on no other windows appearing on top of the preview window before the screenshot is taken!!

I got a little problem while sending HTML e-mails with CDONTS.
I generate my e-mail body without problems into a string variable. When I
display it to the browser via a "response.write", it's OK, including images.
Then I set this string variable to the CDONTS.Newmail object (body
property), and I send the mail. Code:

There's only 15 rows in the table 'FiscalYr', but I can't grab the row I need.
Here's 3 typical rows:
..Year...Start..........End...... Column names = 'year', 'start', 'end'
2003 12/29/2002 12/27/2003
2004 12/28/2003 12/25/2004
2005 12/26/2004 12/24/2005
For example, if the value of 'today' is #07/10/2004", I want the record where the key is 2004. In fact, any value for 'today' between 12/28/2003 and 12/25/2004 should pull up the '2004' row.
Here's my non-functioning code:
SQL = "SELECT * FROM FiscalYr WHERE Start >= #" & today & "# AND End <= #" & today & "#"
Set rs = DBConn.Execute(SQL)
The resultSet obviously should have only one record because the Start and End dates are unique and don't overlap from row-to-row.
but when I:
if rs.recordcount >= 0 Then
response.write. "There are " & rs.recordcount & "rows that match your search."
else
response.write "While attempting to tally a RecCount there is an Error with recordset. <br />"
end if
I keep getting the Error msg. What am I doing wrong?

I am trying to grab the server name and IP address using Response.Write (Request.ServerVariables("ALL_HTTP"). I am using this one because I wanted to see everything that is brought back.
The server name I am getting back seems to be the host name found in IIS not the fullly qualified domain name of the server. Is there a way to get the fully qualified domain name of the server?
Also this server is one of two servers in a cluster and the IP address being returned is the IP address of the cluster server. Is there a way to get the IP address of the server that I am actually logged into?

I have a voting system that works perfect. It calculates the % of votes and shows the total percentage that people picked 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, and a total.
However, I want to be able to select the top 3 of those, and highlight the row, using a bgColor variable that I have defined. The problem with this is that I am calculating the %'s as I am writing the rows, and do not know how to check to see if that row is one of the top 3.
Here is my code:

I have this asp page (see code below). It grabs the values from the previous page and populates the email which gets sent to the recipient from the person bidding on his product. I need to grab the bidder's email address (he is logged in when sending this email) from the database.
I can't seem to figure out the code for grabbing a logged in visitor's information from the database to display in the "From" field. Can anyone help? I need the code that grabs his email address, and the code that goes in the "mailer.from" variable to populate that field. Here's the code:

I'm interested in creating an asp function that enables the general parsing of xml. The function needs to take into account the structure of the xml document, as the document(s) can be quite complex.
The use of getElementsByTagName() is not appropriate in this case as I'm trying to avoid picking up the wrong data. The function also needs to be able to test if a node has any attributes and what the attributes are. Here's an example of the document I'm trying to parse: Code:
