Thanks Cameron,
It does indeed have that header, how do I make this work?
XMLDocument1.FileName := 'c:\temp\test.htm';
XMLDocument1.Active := True;
Gives me various errors, I suspect that that the file is not valid xml,
or is there some other way of parsing it?

Do you know if the websites are xhtml -- do they have anything like
below in the start of the page.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
If they are it would be easier to load them into XML documents and
process them that way using msxml DOMDocument60

*Subject:* [DUG] web scraping using IHTMLDocument2
I'm trying to do some web page scraping using IHTMLDocument2, which is
working fairly well and I can grab the second paragraph on a web page
by doing something like:
p := iDoc.all.tags('P');
if p.Length >= 2 then
result := p.Item(1).InnerText;
Where iDoc is an isnstance of IHTMLDocument2.
However say there there is an HTML element like
<div class="propertyInfo">Price: <span>Negotiation</span></div>
How would I be able to find the divs where class="propertyInfo"? (if
anyone has much experience with IHTMLDocument2)
