You could save it in this format for just one file

fav1="VDSWORLD|www.vdsworld.com"
fav2="Visual Dialogscript Homepage|www.dialogscript.com"
fav3=
fav4=
fav5=

right but how to have vds ( not using I.E read the title of the web page) and then save that title WITH the url to that page Smile

You could keep a list of windows that have been active and pick the one right before your window. < still couldn't be for sure if it correct

I think Tim needs something like my JavaScript does on my website, it has a button the user clicks and makes my website a favorite on thier IE, but he wants the power of VDS to do all that offline.

And to be able to read the propertys of URLs and have automatic full control of... Idea

Sounds like the job for DLL Smile

This is the only line you'll need to parse the title out of a HTML file: Smile

cool but if the web page is big won't it take a long time parse it?

also to Skit3000 what about parse code for | so i could have the favs be like this

fav1="VDSWORLD|www.vdsworld.com"
fav2="Visual Dialogscript Homepage|www.dialogscript.com"
fav3=
fav4=
fav5=

what i could do is have it parse for title then save it then have it save the url after it using the | then when you view your fav and click on the one you want it would find the url after the | ....i hope you follow what i mean

Tim you really have to pop open that vds help file and start reading up on how to use some of these commands.

OPTION FIELDSEP,|
PARSE "%%title;%%url", %%data

where %%data is the TITLE|URL

You then have the two separate variables %%title and %%url which hold the correct information.

hi
I'd like to be able just to get the URL address from a webpage while online, but the earlier code posted on this post (I think it was CodeScript) had a IF line that contained 'ComboBoxEx32' I looked for this in VDS5 Help, and no luck... what is that? (he said that script was no use if use DLL - so I figure its VDS code ???)

Or is it an IE known maybe .. Rolling Eyes

Looks like an awesome script, and where can I find instructions on how to use that vdsbrw50.dll that comes with VDS5 please? Thank you...
