I would like to create a applescript that would goto a website containing the current stats for my fantasy baseball league and copy those to a previously existing excel file. I have done some simple applescript jobs, but this one is above anything I've tried.
I want to bring each of the 10 stats(HR, RBI, ERA, etc) from all 12 teams "Overall Stats" into an existing excel file on a daily basis and paste this info into new cells.
If anyone has some insight into this I would be very thankful. I'm not looking for someone to do this for me, but more for guidance on which road I should even be looking down!
Thanks -Chris
Perhaps someone could confirm what I think ... ?
Chris, you could look down the path of using curl to get the html data..

I'm not even sure if you would be able to get the table using xmllib, but someone out there might be able to give you a yes or no on that.
