Ah I see what your doing wrong,

When the new explorer window pops up (showing your character and his stuff), you must right click to the right of the character name "Raahvin" and select "View Source" - Copy the java source and paste this into the little black window (text box) above the button "Decode and Load". So you see, this text box now has the java script source which my program uses for decoding...

Also, see the help with the program (in main window screen) - "View Online Help" button.

Anyway, I loaded your character in fine - so let me know how it goes.

Ahh!! Yes, there it's working fine. I am very sorry for not reading the help. I normally am not this helpless. It works like a champ. I was actually wondering how you managed to hook to the popup window and parse it. But now I see, you do not. Very nice. Works like a champ!

Earlier on I managed to link to the magelo site by sending the page to a string variable. But for some weird reason, vb6 does not work with this type of site - perhaps because of the javascript. Thus manual copying and pasting was necessary.

i am not that familiar with VC6, but does it support an fopen(url) kind of process, that you can then read that data into a buffer and parse it? You could then tell the user to simply enter their MageloID and behind the scenes grab the page, parse, and stuff. I do this with PHP, but hadn't tried with any other scripting language.

Here's fragments of a typical web page parser I use for PHP, for example:

/* open the page $url */
$rslink = @fopen($url,"rb");

/* load into a buffer */
while(!feof($rslink)) {
  $this->rsBuffer .= @fread($rslink,1024);
}

/* parse the buffer using regex, or however you do now */
function ParseBuffer()

hmm. Perhaps im not doing it right but... I get this error. I have the drivers installed and edited the db.ini as you said. Just reinstalled the server today using Cavedudes database and such.

Run-time error '76':
Path not Found

maybe im still a little noobish as this or somethin. Any suggestions?

Make you you run register_ocx.bat in /resources/ folder.

Also make sure you update the server to be at least 0.7.0.840 complient, as I do not remember if it works with plain vanilla 0.7.0
Lastly, I just uploaded a new version which drops a control that was unused previously. May not make a difference though.

ALso, paths seem to need an ending slash c:\path\ in some of the tools.
