 Posted: Thu Apr 17, 2003 2:51 pm Post subject: Submit using VDSIPP.DLL |
 |
|
How could i do the following. an example line or two would be great.
Submit a keyword to a search engine eg.
Yahoo and then retrieve the results ?
Any way of doing this?
I know you could use the POST command in vdsipp.dll but what are the parameters to use ?

You asked for two??? 
| Code: | internet http,get,1,http://search.yahoo.com/bin/search?p=@input(Search for...)&ei=UTF-8
info @internet(http,content,1) |
Be sure to make a connection before you try it... I wanted to add it, but I would exceed those two lines then...

The gadget.dll can do this with the Google APIs... not sure if you've seen
that. What Skit did in those lines was used the VDSIPP.DLL and retreived
the content which could be processed and displayed.

Hopefully this gives you a better idea of what you can do:
| Code: |
EXTERNAL vdsipp.dll
internet HTTP,CREATE,1
internet http,get,1,http://search.yahoo.com/bin/search?p=@input(Search for...)
:evloop
wait event
goto @event()
:HTTP1ONGETDONE
list create,1
list assign,1,@internet(http,content,1)
list savefile,1,@WINDIR(T)\SearchResults.tmp.html
SHELL OPEN,@WINDIR(T)\SearchResults.tmp.html
WAIT 3
FILE DELETE,@WINDIR(T)\SearchResults.tmp.html
exit
