Any suggestions?

The "TEXT SITE" name.
Here is an example. I searched for "pallet" the 1st result was
Pallet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PalletCached - Similar
You +1'd this publicly. Undo
A pallet sometimes called a skid, is a flat transport structure that supports goods in a stable fashion while being lifted by a forklift, pallet jack, front loader or other ...
EUR-pallet - Plastic pallet - 463L master pallet - Pallet crafts
"en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pallet" is what I need.
Thanks!!!

ok, here is the script. When you run it, the browser window will come up. Do your search and then close the browser to get the result...
Code: Select all
PerlRegEx = Yes;
Output.Clear;
Link = New(URL);
rx = New(RegEx);
Link.Location = BrowseTo('www.google.com');
loop
Link.Get;
rx.Data = Link.Data;
rx.Mask = '<cite>.*?</cite>';
while rx.Match do begin
lnk = rx.Value - '<[^>]*>';
Output(lnk);
end;
rx.Mask = '<a href="([^"]+)"[^>]*><[^>]*><[^>]*><[^>]*>Next';
if not rx.Match then Break;
Link.Location = Link.Fixup(Decode(rx.Value[1]));
end;
