Is INFINITE WEB a screen scraper?

| Top No, INFINITE WEB works very differently than a screen scraper. A screen scraper does a simple translation of an entire text screen into a graphical one. INFINITE WEB transforms each object on the screen (i.e. labels, input fields, etc) into XML objects that can in turn be “consumed” by other applications. Depending upon the task, the integration can be done via a trigger embedded into the screen or via web services for more complex integration projects.
