    I'm trying to make a program that'll send items via neofriend to another account and this is what i have for my send code... i know it's probably completely wrong but it's like my second or third attempt at a real program actually using an http wrapper xD

    Code (Text):
    1.  strHTML = Wrapper.GetWrapper("http://www.neopets.com/objects.phtml?type=inventory", "http://www.neopets.com/petcentral.phtml")
    2.         strID = GetStringBetween(strHTML, "<A href=""javascript:;"" onclick=""openwin(", ") return false:"">") 'Gets item ID
    3. strHTML = Wrapper.GetWrapper("http://www.neopets.com/iteminfo.phtml?obj_id=" & strID, "http://www.neopets.com/objects.phtml?type=inventory")
    4. strHTML = Wrapper.PostWrapper("http://www.neopets.com/iteminfo.phtml?obj_id=" & strID & "action=" & "give", "http://www.neopets.com/iteminfo.phtml?obj_id=" & strID)
    5. strHTML = Wrapper.PostWrapper("http://www.neopets.com/useobject.phtml" & "or_name=" & txtUser.Text, "http://www.neopets.com/iteminfo.phtml?obj_id=" & strID)
    i tried to find a destination for the two PostWrapper things but i couldn't find one and i don't quite know if i'm even close or not... If you could like point me in the right direction to do this i'm using tamperdata and liveHTTPheaders to try and find all the http stuff

    Proof read...
    Look in your error box, you see a lot of syntax stuff don't you?
    Just a quick read, but you are missing a few ' and "
    For example, on the item ID thing, there needs to be a second ' I'm fairly sure. :)
    The rest of it is beyond me.

    i dont mean syntax stuff... that's not what i'm worried about i mean do i have like the right host/referrer/post data... i can fix the syntax stuff in like 5 min... and umm actually there aren't any syntax errors... i'm using vb6 so it may be different in vb8 but when i run the program i don't get any syntax stuff...

    Are you using HTTPWrapper or RIpperWrapper?

    There. This should work... With HTTPWrapper, the PostData is another parameter which you have to specify.

    sorry for the double post but this wont get seen otherwise...

    I've been working at my code for the past few days and it still wont work, i've even tried just copy and pasting your code ricky but it still wont work and i think the problem is finding the item ID. I made it so the program would just put the item ID into a label and not do anything else but the label just goes blank... i've tried messing around with what it should get between and seeing if there's anything in the page source that would confuse the GetStringBetween function and there isn't and i'm really quite confused....

    thanks in advanced :)
