Dear all,

Can anyone help me out please.

I want to run a DOS command in the command line WinXp and Win2K which
will copy the content of the website as an text file.

For example when I go to the website www.whatismyip.com I get the
Public IP of my internet connection. So these content which is
displayed has to be saved as a text file and saved in a particular
location. I want to do this operation in the command line using some
DOS command.

Please help me out. I very much need them very urgently.

Thanks so much in advanced.

Dani


There is, of course, no DOS under WinXP, only a Command
Prompt. I don't think there are any native Windows commands
that will do what you're trying to do but if you tell us more
specifically what you need your external address for then someone
may be able to suggest a suitable solution. It could be as simple as
extracting a number out of a ping command.
