Hi,

I would like to pull an html page in , parse the html, select the text info that I want and then display it in flash.

Example:

Pull in wind.html from a live site.  
Parse the html.  
Take out the wind speed text - display it in a text box (either by searching and finding wind direction text in the html - or using the line that this info is on or something else).  
Take out the wind direction - display in a text box.

Can any 1 help?

I can use flash, xmll and or ASP

Thanks

Dev
