Hi,

Any ideas on how llHTTPRequest might be used to pull the live L$/US$ exchange rate from Lindex? I don't really want to have to resort to writing some kind of PHP scraper thingamy and wondered if there was a way to get llHTTPRequest to squirrel out the data?

Any advice gratefully received!

Thanks.

Andy

You need to login to retrieve to view the currency exchange page. Thus it isn't possible because you cannot send cookies with llHTTPRequest
