Hi,

I'm trying to retrieve some info from a website, thru sockets. I'm no expert in this, but i do have searched and tried alot of combinations, but i simply can't get it to work.

The goal is, to retrieve only one line, from a page like this:
http://www.clanbase.com/cbrank.php?cid=113892&lid=2398&type=js
(The &type=js is optional).

So far, i've came only to 'debugging', and this is what i came up with:

Code:
 
alias cb.rank {
  if ($sock(cbrank)) { sockclose cbrank }
  sockopen cbrank www.clanbase.com 80
}

on *:sockopen:cbrank:{
sockwrite -t cbrank GET cbrank.php?cid=113892&lid=2398&type=js HTTP/1.0
  sockwrite -n cbrank Host: www.clanbase.com 80
  sockwrite -n cbrank $crlf
}
on *:sockread:cbrank:{
  sockread %vrs
  echo -a :: %vrs
}


And this is what it returns:
Code:
:: HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
:: Date: Mon, 26 Mar 2007 18:22:38 GMT
:: Server: Apache/1.3.37 (Unix) PHP/4.4.2
:: Connection: close
:: Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1
::
:: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
:: <HTML><HEAD>
:: <TITLE>400 Bad Request</TITLE>
:: </HEAD><BODY>
:: <H1>Bad Request</H1>
:: Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.<P>
:: The request line contained invalid characters following the protocol string.<P>
:: <P>
:: </BODY></HTML>


I really have no clue what to change, to make it work. While it just should return "document.write(3)" in this case.
