Based on replies I have received (thanks for them) I don't think I explained the situation properly. Let me try again: Until a month ago, I was able to retrieve the drive time between two zip codes by using (for example):

   put "http://www.mapquest.com/maps/01778/03861/"; into bunchofText

Up until about a month ago, bunchofText would contain (for example):

   Total Estimated Time: 1 hour 35 minutes

Therefore, it was a simple matter of using offset("Total Estimated Time:", bunchofText) to retrieve the drive time between two zip codes.

Then, suddenly my script didn't work. Using Variable Watcher I found that bunchofText now contains some mysterious code. It now looks like this:

Total Estimated Time: <span class="timeSpan" id="dirTimeSummary"></ span>

Obviously, I now can't retrieve the drive time. Does anyone have any ideas what I should do? Incidentally, I have tried using revBrowser. But when I use the following script:

on mouseup
  put the windowid of this stack into tWinID
  put "http://www.mapquest.com/maps/01778/03861/"; into tAddress
  put revBrowserOpen(tWinID,tAddress) into tBrowserID
  revBrowserSet tBrowserID, "showborder","true"
  revBrowserSet tBrowserID, "rect",rect of img "browserimage"
  put revBrowserGet(tBrowserID,"htmltext")
end mouseup

Revolution crashes

Any suggestions/help would be most appreciated!

Thanks
