Default Excel Web Query for Java Applet driven data website

Hi all,

I can seem to download data from a web site that displays data using Java
Applets. For exmaple, try using web query on
http://www.netdania.com/QuoteList.asp and it will return blank. Anyone has
any idea how to deal with this?

Thanks

When a webpage is written in Javascript, web query will not be able to extract the data eventhough one can see the data in the Excel Browser. This is because these scripts are not in the html. To extract data, one would need to use other software like imacros' scripting edition that will work with Excel's VBA.
