Forums Scripts & Popups News Bot question

Ok got a questin here. I have seen how you can get cnn news. I was wondering how i could get information from a web site and then haev it come up in the channel. This is for a game. Example is theres a web site with foders and in there theres news on wat is going on in the game. How do i go about getting the information form the web site and then parse it into the channel?

Generally you connect to the website and make a HTTP request. Then, you parse the incoming data and collect the information you need.

Since you will be coping with HTML text, you may want to keep this tags-stripper handy:

; Usage: $nohtml(string)
alias nohtml var %a | !.echo -q $regsub($1-,/^.*?>|<.*?>|<.*?$/g,,%a) | return %a

If you need further help, post here the code you've got, and let us know the address of the page in question so we can experiment with it ourselves.
