reading an HTML stream in ASP
Hello,
Our intranet gives us access to an X500 directory which provides information on all employees, in particular their emails.
I'd like to develop a small ASP application where the user needs to fill some form and provides other people emails. So, as this user may not be aware of the exact syntax of emails, my idea is to interface my ASP application with the X500 site to provide some assistance to the user : he will type the name of the people, my asp application will connect to the X500 site with the name as a parameter, will analyze the result and fetch the associated email.
So, my ASP application should act more or less like a web client wrt X500 site, sending a X500 query and be able to collect and parse the HTML result that the X500 server will return.
Is that approach possible in ASP? If yes, can someone give an code example, or some hints on how to go?
Thank you in advance
Christian
PS : My server is IIS 4.0
