Here's an example of a script that does something like that: http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/view-script.r?script=get-stock.r Except, of course, it's using an interface to a Yahoo stocks site. If your site can provide a similar sort of download file, the adaptations needed may be trivial. If you can't, and need to screenscrape, then 'parse or 'load/markup are your friends.
