JSCRIPT
Dave,Thanks for responding. My application is to
download current AB ticker stock quote from Yahoo into a file; I then
strip all the HTML junks and search for Open,High,Low,Close,Volume
informations and insert these into AB. Kind of poor man intraday
quotes. I had this working with previous Yahoo format (a bit
simpler). Now they reformatted their quote page therefore I looked
for a more robust solution. I know you would ask why not use
Amiquote; This is just a start for me because I would like to extend
the codes for other datas as fundamentals etc. I was hoping Jscript
has a function that helping me do this.--- In <A
