Hello. I took a class last semester that used Qt and have wanted to explore and continue to use it. I had an idea for a program that I would like to write that would involve checking a website for certain words/phrases when the program is executed. I have looked through the Qt Documentation and come close to what I need in order to make it happen, but I hit a snag.

The QHttp class has a "get" function that can retrieve the Page Source code from a website and store it to a local file on the computer. Qt even has an example program that does just that. However, the get function only accepts what it calls an "absolute path," which ends with a .com, .html, etc. How would I go about doing the same thing with a relative path with more characters that follow those endings, such as this?

I am using Linux Ubuntu 9.04 and Qt version 4.5.0. I would also like to be able to compile the program on Windows XP.

Thank you for your time and help.
