View 6 RepliesI want to make a desktop application for [URL]..if anyone is familiar with any of these sites (Fmylife etc), they will know that the text is in the white bubbles going down the screen.
Is it possible to grab just the stories, and ignore everything else?
I have tried this kind of thing:
Private Sub Grab_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Grab.Click
Dim Actual
Actual = Mid(MLIABrowser.Document.Body.InnerText, 397, 1000000)
RichTextBox1.Text = Actual
End Sub
This just gets all the text after the 397 character, but there are several problems with this:
- The adds on the page are different every time, so it would be impossible to get a constant
- There is still text on the sides and bottom that is being grabbed
- I also do not want the "comments" etc shown. JUST the story...
I was wandering if I can push a button to read contents of a webpage and then print links into a textbox or something along those lines. Maybe search from a textbox to find keyword on webpage.

What I am trying to do is to find a way to click on my button and have my app open the list and randomly grab a name and place it into a textbox.
I would include some code but I'm not even sure where to begin.
I'm thinking that I will need to code the button to use the openfiledialog..create an algorithm to use a random copy line and return it into the textbox.
