Bill,

If I run this script in a button

on mouseUp
     put "805" into vAC
put URL ("http://www.webservicex.net/uszip.asmx/GetInfoByAreaCode?USAreaCode="; & vAC) && "HTTP/1.1"
end mouseUp

I get...

Unfortunately neither of these suggestions work. LiveCode doesn’t like the 
parenthesis.

I also tried using quote & syntax and that didn’t work either.

Bill,

It doesn't work because LiveCode first parses "url [the url]" and then 
concatenates the subsequent strings. Try using parentheses:

   put "805" into vAC
   put URL ("http://www.webservicex.net/uszip.asmx/GetInfoByAreaCode?USAreaCode="; & vAC) 
&& "HTTP/1.1"
