Default Web Query Query

Hi,
for awhile ive been trying to make a script to make my spreedy self
sufficient so i can walk away and come back and know the exact time
data changed on a site.
For this ive got a query that updates every 3 seconds... the problem is
quite often it gives the error recieved no data (this error can be
recreated by making a site and linking to data on it then deleting the
data on the web... then you should get the message i get)
The problem is nothing will happen on the spreedy until that error is
dealt to.
What i am wondering is there any more stable ways for recieving data
off of a web site, it seems as if its timing out when refreshing or
something and taking it as if its recieved nothing.
So

What other kind of ways are there of extracting data from a web page.

In advance Thankyou so much for your time and effort,

Timothy

p.s. it dosnt seem to have an error number so cant be classed as an
error to use error trapping code... its more a statement or warning
window
