I am new to filemaker. I am wondering if it is possible to have some sort of lookup function. What I want to do is develope my own database for my movies, books, etc and have a function or script that will lookup information from the internet about the item. I want to create something like what delicious library is doing. You can put in your book ISBN, and it will pull the author, title, year, ect and populate the fileds you want.

if you want to do this with a webviewer ( however I think it is better to use webservices (with ScriptMaster for example) ) you can load the page in the webviewer.

With GetLayoutObjectAttribute ( "myWebViewerName" ; "content" ) you can extract the HTML source of the page. You need to find in this HTML code where the necessary information is, and store it in a field.
