Uno and Ethernet shield ENC28J60

Hi chaps,

After Christmas, I'm the proud owner of a shiny new Uno and an ethernet shield (the cheaper one based around the ENC28J60)

I've got it all hooked up and the examples working.

However, I'm not following the code in the examples at all - it's a little beyond me.

What I want to do is very simple: Act as a web client and put in an HTTP get request to a server, and have the response fired down the serial line.

Can anyone point me in the direction of some code that would achieve this?

Thanks!

Which examples would those be?

Apologies, I should have been more specific.

This is the shield I'm using: http://www.nuelectronics.com/estore/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=4.

Nuelectronics have provided a library to get this to work, and some examples. The 'Simple' web client code is here: http://www.nuelectronics.com/estore/?p=14

This example (and the others provided in the library) all work perfectly well, but the code is beyond my abilities (currently!).

All I want to be able to do is get a web page, and then parse it to find some data and then display it in terms of something real (PWM LED/Servo motor position etc.)

Parsing and conversion into something real is no problem - I can manage this. However, from this library and the examples I can't work out how to simply 'get' a webpage!

I looked through the samples, and it does look a lot more complicated to use that ethernet shield than the Wiznet based one. Since I don't have that shield, I'm afraid I can't help you.
