Hi,

This is Anurag Pathak.

I tried a lot but could not get the Java/JSP/Servlet Source Code to import Contact Details from various Websites.

If any body has done it in past or any link please help.

On Net PHP etc are available but I want the same in Java.

Looking forward for urgent reply.

Regards

Anurag

import Contact Details from various Websites.



If you want code to contact web sites and request information just like a browser would, a toolkit like HttpClient will work.

If you are talking about something else, kindly give a more detailed example using a specific website.

In any case you should try to get these functions going as stand-alone applications first, a servlet environment just complicates things.

I'd also check to see if the various sites you're doing this to have an API; it'd make things much, *much* easier.

Also, please see EaseUp.
