Re: Re: Parsing HTML

I assure you that I am not trying to circumvent google's anything. I'm trying to provide a HTML translation page tool for some of my visitors where they will provide there own URL and a translation of some keywords will be done for them. Thats all. I never actually was going to flaunt googles terms and conditions and after the replys from Rasmus I went away and looked into the mater. I agree whole heartedly with what Rasmus and others said and will not be circumventing APIs under any circumstance.
