Hi all How would I get recent stock prices in a page? I obviously need to get this from some source. I am looking for local (South African) and international share prices for a portal-type system. What I will probably do (for the sake of speed) is have a cron job periodically fetch the relevant prices, and put them in a database. This will then be displayed from the database (I know - delayed stock prices are ok) What I am really after is a method of getting share prices from the net. I have no idea about how to go about doing this - where to get them from, etc. Please help... Thanks David R
