Thanks for the suggestion - now how to "grab" that from a web page, how
to store it, and how to display it/them (the hyperlinks) on a VFP form ?
Here's what I did (eventually)
1. Found two extensions for FireFox ("Copy as HTML link" and MakeLink")
both of which enable grabbing the whole of the <a></a> shebang to the
clipboard. This is *really* nice (in IE I would probably have to save
the displayed text and the URL as separate operations"
2. Paste, or otherwise, save these tags/elements/snippets (what would be
the correct terminology, I wonder ?) into a memo field
3. Tio display the links, do a STRTOFILE of the memo field (prepending
an <HTML> tag) to a temp file and then use the "DHTML Edit Control for
IE5" and the LoadDocument method.
It all works rather well.
Cheers
