Hi

I'm looking for a chat function where web-visitors can see when the webmaster is online and start chat with him.
When they choose to chat the webmaster get's an alert.

Has someone this chat-code or function?

Yours sincerely Jonas Walter

Hello:

I have been programming with VB for quite a while and am something of a 
newcomer to ASP and programming with Internet Explorer objects.  I have a 
great interest in extracting data by navigating to strategic sites and 
then parsing the HTML and populating databases with the material.  I am 
adept in all phases of this operation except for one.  I don't know how to 
populate a text box or press a button programmitically.  I would like to 
be able to fully automate the process of extracting information.

What I can do is navigate from site to site programmitically and read the 
underlying HTML using code.  I often find that when I push a button on a 
site, code performs internal calculations before sending me on, and I 
can't anticipate the exact wording of the site and all of its parameters 
beforehand.  

What I'm asking is how to build spiders using VB, and I'd be grateful for 
some code that I could download to pick apart.

Thanks,
Peter Ferber

Hi Peter.

I'm not sure of the answer to your question, but you may have more luck
posting it in a VB forum, not a Visual Interdev one. :))

Cheers,

Andrew

This is actually regarding Pete's problem.
Hey Pete,
check the thread How to configure the debugger in Visual InterDev?
for October and you'll find your answer. I tried it and its debugging, 
although it asks the same question - "Do you want to continue?" but it 
does the work.

Regards
Tariq

My appologies.  I thought that VB was part of Interdev.
