Brian: the html page I saved was the html from the https://www.sudoku-puzzles-online.com/cgi-bin/hexadoku/print-a-grid-hexadoku.cgi page which in turn was generated from the [print] button at https://www.sudoku-puzzles-online.com/hexadoku/print-hexadoku.php
Looking at view-source:https://www.sudoku-puzzles-online.com/cgi-bin/hexadoku/print-1-grid-hexadoku.cgi, it's using id='grid' instead of id="grid" but if you're fine using copy and paste, I have no objection to that. (I was thinking of maybe using httpget to automate the retrieval of puzzles, but there's a lot of possibilities here, and different people have different approaches.)
