Help (Get text from .php website) [solved]
Im trying to make a program that grabs the TRUE or FALSE fom a site and then tells my program which it is and the program will either have a text box or like a different picture.
heres what i have so far.

its just the webbrowser loading the PHP page and showing the text, but i want the program to know which it says (true or false) and then show a certain text box or show a certain picture
thanks

rwebsite", the webclient downloads the pagesource from there, checks whether it contains "true". the "useable" variable now tells you whether the page said true or false[highlight=vb.net]
Dim useable As Boolean = False
Using wClient As New Net.WebClient()
useable = wClient.DownloadString("http:/
rwebsite").ToLower().Contains("true")End Using
If Not useable Then 'the pagesource didn't contain "true"
MessageBox.Show("This is unuseable")
Else
MessageBox.Show("This is useable!")
End if
[/highlight]

wont change images on change of the text on the site
Outside link removed. Next time you post one I have to report it.
And the reason it's not working is because that page is broken:
[highlight=php]
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end, expecting T_VARIABLE or T_DOLLAR_OPEN_CURLY_BRACES or T_CURLY_OPEN in ***********.php on line 4
[/highlight]
AND BECAUSE you converted the string "ToLower()", then checked if it contained "FALSE" which is in uppercase lol, of course that's going to fail.
