Quickest way to download an element from web page

[vladBEL]

what would be the short way to get piece of text from internet w/o starting up ie browser.
for example the time string from http://cgi1.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?TimeShow
i love how IntGetFile works and hope that just an element of the page may be fetched in same manner.
thanks a lot,
