Greetings everyone,

I have a question about how to implement a intelligent web spider.
 
Very sorry, I hit enter by accident. :(

Basically what I am looking for is a way to have a program
automatically enter certain information in certain text fields and
then use a button. For example, I go to www.google.com automatically
and enter a search topic in the search field then hit enter, but all
of this automatically with a program. Is there a way to do this in
ASP.Net?

If you want help, my suggestion is that you ask your question rather than
just stating you have a question.
 
I did, see the reply to myself. I couldn't find a delete for the
thread or a modify for the thread.

In the case of google, if you complete a search you will see that it performs
a form post with the GET method - so all your items are on the querystring.
If you use something like the WebClient class, all you need to do is ensure
that your search url looks just like what you see in the browser's address
bar on a real search. You can use the DownloadString method to capture the
HTML of the results page.
