LUA based web browser

Hello,

I was wondering if it is possible to send http requests and receive html with any LUA commands? I've skimmed over the LUA docs but didn't see anything like that. I'm guessing I'll have to write the functions to send the http request and receive the html in C++ and call it from LUA, but I was hoping LUA would have built in functionality for it.

Any suggestions or tips?

Thanks

Hello again,

After digging online some more for quite a while, I found an extension library that handles this. It is LUASocket if anyone else is interested. Here is a link to the site.
