GRABBING HTML DATA FROM OTHER WEBSITES
ASPHTTP.Conn - a commonly installed component, this one. It's available from ServerObjects, and it's a popular choice. Here's a quick function for grabbing the raw HTML of a page

function gragURL(strURL){
var objHTTP = new ActiveXObject("ASPHTTP.Conn");
objHTTP.Url = strURL;
strResponse = new String(objHTTP.GetURL());
return strResponse;
}
