Are you at all good with the Jquery library?What version of livelink are you working with.?if you look at the link that says Personal/Assignments you would probably see ?func=personal.assignments which to a trained oscripter translates as there is an object called personal and it has a script called assignments or in livelink geek speak as a Request Handler registered with livelink.Tracing oscript calls is fun and is very easy once you get the hang of oscript.I suggested jquery because when the page is rendered in your browser there is a whole lot of things you can do by looking at the <div> s on the page.Sure you may have to find the real page that spits out the HTML(WEBLINGO) but in most livelink versions they spit out the names of the files.In later versions of livelink they hide the debug info.

Oscript work is not to be looked as "hacks" to a particular task at hand because it can seriously defeat the purpose of livelink in your org.If you have not done so consider learning it under the auspices of OT. Do a little bit of research on your side,post code on where you are getting stuck and a lot of people will jump to help you.

OT markets the webreports/activeview as a way to "Dress Up" the livelink html interface which again uses a mixture of server side calls/tag parsing and jquery .Oscript knowledge is not required in that tool.If you have that and if it is possible to override the oscript call I see that of value as well.

And if you were on the latest livelink perhaps the RESTApi could be an option.I know not.

Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level, and then beat you with experience.

As the previous poster mentioned, you can use JQuery etc to get access to the data, perhaps even use the REST API / Web Services as well, but this may not be the cleanest way depending on your specific requirements.

If the data is present in the objects presented to the appropriate WebLingo page, then using CustomizationsRT you could swap out that page for your custom one, or at the very least, provide the data onto the page that can then be manipulated with JQuery etc.

A simple example can be found at http://www.greggriffiths.org/livelink/development/weblingo/customizationsrt/.
