... I founded it of no use to me. And instead of just criticizing the change of direction, just became an observer... Now that you found a Hosting supplier that can handle CGI without much hassle, I can be a closer observer, and if my economic situation allowed, even a donator, but I got bankrupt ...

Hi Otto,

Can you please give us a ballpark price on this mobile device?

I have purchased some HTC S11 units in the past (company in China) that came with WM6.5 but ended up having some issues with the supplier.
The price was good (approx 125.00 U.S.)

I am still looking for a new supplier

James, It is not a monopoly. Other companies can be involved and build systems, etc. Some use their own proprietary systems, and the independents often provide a means to interact with their software. The problem is that two different companies created management systems for parts houses and each ha...

Tim,

>In the parts business there are two companies who "control the market".

This and your other reasons are why we have laws against monopolies. It is a shame that this is the situation.

Regards,
James

Rich, James, In the parts business there are two companies who "control the market". They have the systems in place in the warehouses used by the parts suppliers. They also provide software that can be integrated into a 3rd party package to access their systems. The search that this person...

James, Tim Here is a screenshot of another programmers proof of concept.. It appears that the concept of querying multiple vendors is possible for a specific part and then collating the results in a single form. The programmer is from Ohio and is not local and reluctant to sell or negotiate his prod...

Tim, It sounds like you are saying that they can't supply the data in XML (without a license), but they can in HTML? They are supplying it in HTML now, so I presume that is acceptable. So, may Rick should stick to trying to parse the data out of the HTML page, rather than trying to get access via XM...

Rich,

you could give details of what you want to do?

( if possible a sample code )

Rich, You are trying to re-create the wheel ! Most parts suppliers already use software that makes the data available to their clients ... but there is a monthly access fee from the "source" company. They probably can't let you access the data because of the licensing agreement they have w...

Lailton What is the trigger ( submit ) input to get to the next page ? I looked at your Receive.html and reviewed the source .. Your code evals to the connect logic and returns the html of the page .. but I do not exactically know what 'curl' is doing .. or how to get past a login page once the conn...

Laiton and James ..

Definitly the tip of the iceburg .. and I will need to get with one of the vendors to see how they query up a stock number so I can tap into that process ..

Really appreciate the advice you both have shared !

Rick

Good Rick,

If you wanna to get xml file really you can use soap kit of microsoft ( for webservice ), work fine.

more if is only to login you can use curllib.

Good Luck

Rick, After rereading your original post, it seems that logging in is only the tip of the iceberg. What you really need is for the website to provide you with a XML file containing the data you need. I believe this was originally done with SOAP which Microsoft has since abandoned, but there must be ...

Lailton

WOW .. I ran your demo and looked at your code .. this certainly logs into your site .. I will do some more testing with your example ..

I appreciate your help and quick response !
