title: How can I fetch data from a website inside a C++ program
body: <p>I want to write a program in C++ that helps to manage my hockey pool, and one of the key things i will need to do is read off the schedule for the week ahead. I was hoping to use the NHL website. is there any way to have the program download the HTML file for a given url, and then parse that? i suppose that once i have the file downloaded, Simple file I/O would do, but im not sure how to download the file. </p>
