Please place any code (including XML HTML etc.) in a code box.  Especially when it is very long.

You can't force scrape to use a "browser" but you can use RoboBrowser.

ok so I finally made some progress here using Robo Browser an using RoboB.GetHTML to scrape for the temperature digits which worked. How do you use the Results.RegEx output for TTS to speak it.

i have osd.showText with parameter {LastResult} but its showing me the HTML output not the Results.RegEx output. hope this is clear 

see my xml

Code: [Select]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<!--VoxCommando 2.1.5.2-->
<command id="1379" name="RoboB_test" enabled="true" alwaysOn="False" confirm="False" requiredConfidence="0" loop="False" loopDelay="0" loopMax="0" description="">
  <action>
    <cmdType>RoboB.Select</cmdType>
    <params>

    <params>
      <param>&gt;(.*?)&lt;</param>

    <cmdType>OSD.ShowText</cmdType>
    <params>
      <param>{LastResult}</param>

    <cmdRepeat>1</cmdRepeat>
  </action>
</command>

TIPS: POST VC VERSION #. Explain what you want VC to do. Say what you've tried & what happened, or post a video demo. Attach VC log. Link to instructions followed.  Post your command (xml)
