Hello everyone, the title is pretty much what I want to do but I'll elaborate below for details. I'm currently using a script to ease out my workload, it uses StringRegExp to extract certain bits of info out of a text file that I make and then makes a neat record with whatever it got that I can easily check out later. The only manual labor that I'm forced to do is open a web page in my browser, press ctrl+a ctrl+c, paste it in notepad, replace every double tab character with a semicolon and save the text file. Unfortunately sometimes things get too hectic and I don't get the chance to sit down and sort that out, and while I'm busy somewhere else those precious bits of info just go to waste. That's why I've decided to make the script completely autonomous, but after about two hours of searching through the forums, I've yet to find a definite solution for two reasons: -I can't rely on _InetGetSource because it would be more than a nightmare to figure out a reliable regular expression to get my info out of the page's source code; it would be impossible, considering how complex and dynamic it is, whereas the displayed text on the browser is perfectly manageable. -The pc is always being used, even when I'm not around and especially on hectic times, so automatically opening up the browser and making the mouse and keyboard fetch the displayed text into the clipboard would be a very unreliable approach (I tried it once, with BlockInput and everything, never again). If you could please help me or point me to the right thread where they can help me with my problem, I'd be forever in your debt. Thanks in advance!
