    Question Interacting with IE

    Hi,
    im planning to make a progam thats interacts with an existing site,
    the site is www.darkthrone.com ,

    Well what should my program do? He must preform an automated search in the userlist based on their army size and ammonut of money they have...

    My knowledge about interacting with sites and getting their source is below zero :-D ,
    perhaps there are some people who can help me away...

    On the other side... you could use WinSock control and then learn to use the HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol), read up the RFC (Request For Comments) and then start coding a proper handling code. You'll probably need some other stuff as well besides plain HTTP but that is already a different story; first you need to figure out how to fetch the pages and then how to parse the pages and how to send data. You'll probably need to figure out cookie handling for the other things. Do things step by step until you're comfortable enough with all little basic things required and then build up the final thing.

    Try using google to search for the basics that Merri mentioned then start coding your program and when you run into a problem post it here.
