Forums Scripts & Popups mIRC script searching imdb

Hey all!

Anyone know of a mIRC script to grab ratings from IMDB.com from specific movies?

I think you can write one:
You search IMDb by the following string:

(you can add &select= and to choose one of the following list: (letter case matters) All, Titles, My Movies, People, Characters, Quotes, Bios, Plots)
Then you can save the search results into a text file, then to get the url of the movie you need and then to work the same way to get the info you need from the movie page and all that using sockets.

First, i dont know anythign about rateings of movies or that site at all how it works etc.

however .. i'll asume Ex3 is correct on the search string for the url, thats all well and good, but when it comes right down to it, you cant do anythign at all unless you first understand how to make socket scripts and understand http get requests. so i'd look into that a bit more before trying this project. its not to hard, just to fimilarize yourself with the protocl play around with telnet try to connect to the url (just the main domain) on port 80, then simply use a GET command to refrence what you want .. i've not worked with this alot to paste u an example script, but i have done it .. and can give u more detail if u need it. try it out, see what u come up with.

let us know if u need more help.
