Ok I searched the database here and maybe I found an 
answer but let me know if I'm not...

Look at the post called "Quickly extract only valid urls 
from hts-log.txt ?" from 09/02/2002 (or 02/09?)

That gave me an idea... Is there a way to just scan 
(keyword: SCAN) 1 deep and then got to a hts logfile that 
showds all the links on that page.

If this works then I could for example ascan the ebay 
auction results page. Go to the list of links, and delete 
all the ones I don't want. Then make this my URL list and 
go 1 deep. Will this work? I'm gonna try it.

Anyways, I thought about the web address capture last 
night. I think the ultimate would be to open up a website 
in a special browser and then click and drag a box around 
a list of links and then be able to output JUST THOSE 
LINKS into a text file. This would enable you to go to a 
site with a list of links all in a row that you would want 
and skip the links at the bottom, top, and side of a page. 
This is asking for something really nice, but if what I 
described above doesn't work, then just being able to get 
ALL links from a page would be nice. I can go back and 
edit out the links I don't want.

Joe,

P.S. Great tool... Now that I've used your forum, I am 
inclined to send some money soon... do you take paypal? If 
not, let me know and I will refer you.
