Get info from URLencoded

[nicoh]

Hi again.

Im trying to take information from a URLEncoded file.

For be specific its from Youtube.

The path of the file is something like http://www.youtube.com/get_video_info?video_id=VIDEO_ID

Where VIDEO_ID is the ID of the video (dah!).

Well, the problem is that when I load the URL on my navigator (FF) it downloads all as a file with the information.

Exist a posiblity to get the info direcly and save is as a string for use later?

Thanks :)

I admit my web-skills are not extremely high.. but what is a urlencoded file?

Here is something about urlencoding, but i´m too don´t know what is a urlencoding-file.

http://www.blooberry.com/indexdot/html/topics/urlencoding.htm

URLencoding is for spezial characters.

I think they use temporary url´s for the download.

Yes; I know what urlencoding is - just not what "urlencoded file" is.... UU encoded maybe?

You can try downloading this to have an idea: http://www.youtube.com/get_video_info?video_id=RTh2pADosNs


Firefox tells me:
what is? application/x-www-form-urlencoded

It's just a text file. Open it with Notepad or any other text editor.

Yes, I know that I can open it with notepad.

But, I need to use the file as string to get the values in AMS.. is this possible?

a similar thing that i have replied before
download file with URL
load it with textfile.readtostring()
and assign it to a numerically indexed table

example is here (http://www.indigorose.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21636)

note: example shows only how to parse a string like that

ps: i can not open http://www.youtube.com for the test
because that site blocked by my ISP
