Reading configuration from browser?

[ug505]

I'm trying to get seconds and a URL off my friend's website that is stored in a file. He has it in a PHP file that displays it on the screen as text. I'm not sure if I can rip that off the page and then use it. He said he can change it to an XML file for me to get it off of.

Here's my question: How would I get the information from the file and then use that information? His PHP displays like this:

30#

The 30 represents seconds. The # symbols are separators between the seconds and the URL. How would I get the seconds out and set them to a Integer variable and the URL to a String variable?

something like:

procedure SplitSecondsAndUrl(Input: String; var Seconds : Integer; var URL : String);
begin
 Seconds := StrToInt(Copy(Input, 1, Pos('#')-1);
 Url := Copy(Input, Pos('#')+1, MaxInt);
end;

procedure TestIt;

var URL : String;
    Seconds : Integer;
const TestString = '10#testing123';

begin
 SplitSecondsAndUrl(TestString, Seconds, URL);
 Showmessage(Format('URL:%s seconds:%d',[URL, Seconds]));
end;
