Returns HTML for the specified URL.

Applies to

Inet objects

Syntax

servicereference.GetURL ( urlname, data )

Returns

Integer. Returns 1 for success and a negative value if an error occurs. Possible values are:

Usage

Call this function to access HTML source for a URL.

Data references a standard class user object that descends from InternetResult and that has an overridden InternetData function. This overridden function then performs the processing you want with the returned HTML. Because the Internet returns data asynchronously, data must reference a variable that remains in scope after the function executes (such as a window-level instance variable).

For more information on the InternetResult standard class user object and the InternetData function, use the PocketBuilder Browser.

Example 1
