Hello, I try to pull some data from a webpage. I need the value of local currency compared to the euro. I can go and open the required API page on the required date interval, read in from elsewhere, its format in the memory of the script is like this: 20161005 so YYYYMMDD. The return string if I try to view the opened API's source code is simple, but if I use _IEBodyReadHTML, _IEDocReadHTML, _IEBodyReadText i get it back with a lot of html code (i guess, it looks like HTML, and one of them doesn't show any string in the MsgBox when I try to chechk it) about its color etc. I need dates and the corresponding currency exchange rates (these can be found between <kozep>exchangerate</kozep>, but I need the first only after every month because the second is the avarage exchange rate of the month (i guessed this again). Now I have an approach which will work evantually I guess, but I'm pretty sure its not the standard aproach or how the creators of autoit envisiond the useage of their functions So I post my code here hoping, someone tells me how to do this simply and inteligently. Sorry for such question but I only used regex for much, much simplier tasks. My approach is to identify everything I dont need basicly, after getting rid of a few key problematic chars (like " ) and do this untill I'm only left with what I need. THe problem with this if anything change in the envierment the script has like 99,9999% chance to not run properly, and I would like to handle this better, even if APIs usually don't change that much according to my knowladge. Also I write this in a separat function for now, I will plan to call it from my other function which does different things with the corresponding excel files, among them is the calculation of local currency values of the bills with data from MNB (Hungarian National Bank or something) Here is my code so far, and what its gives back, I will update this with the pic from the source code I see from internet explorer and the webpage I see. Thank you for your help and insight!
