Add the "Source" tag to your Import line to get the source. By default Mathematica uses the "Plaintext" tag (see ref/format/HTML in v7's documentation centre): Import["http://www.atpworldtour.com/5/en/vault/draws.asp?TournamentID= \ 352&TournamentYear=1993", "Source"] Cheers -- Sjoerd On Feb 9, 12:30 pm, oil... at gmail.com wrote: > Hi there, > > I had a Mathematica program that, among other things, had to import > html code from a web site. > > Recently they made some changes in the web site and the program is not > importing properly anymore.
