Read an HTML URL 1

[xavier64]

I make a script, and i want to read the result (or download the file) of an url (

http://www.my_web_site.com/page.html)

I don't want to display it, only get the result on a variable or on a downloaded file.

Is someone have an idea....

Thanks,

Xav

Have you looked at the man pages or the docs that came
with your tcl?
The package you want is http.

Here is a quick sample of how to download
a binary file using an url given as argument one
to the script

#!/usr/bin/tclsh
package require http 1.0

proc mproggy {token tot cur} {
puts -nonewline stdout "."
flush stdout
}

proc rseed {} {
 return [expr int(1 + rand() * 12322)]
}

 set url [lindex $argv 0]
 set chan [open "/directoryname/d[rseed].mpg" w]
 fconfigure $chan -translation binary
 set mhandle [http_get $url -channel $chan -progress mproggy]
