Reading specific data from a site
First a bit of backstory and info. So I am a gamer and a Twitch streamer.
I used Processing to create a donation randomizer (basically gives me something random to do to make things interesting when someone donates a specific amount) and a swear counter (which tallies the swears I say via keyboard input and keeps track of how much money I owe).
The thing I wanted to do with it, though is make it show the total number of donations as well as the total amount donated thus far (not just the donations that I owe for swearing like it does now). I am unsure of how to write the Processing code to read the data off of the website I collect donations through, though. I'm also entirely unsure as to if such a thing is even possible.
Thank you in advance for the help! ^_^

That helps to load the information from the website but I'm trying to get just a single piece of information, being the total amount raised. How would I go about reading that information only to be displayed on the screen?
How would n1 know w/o knowing which site, its API or the file to download outta it? 8-|
I don't know if the site has an API... The site is Tiltify.com As far as a file to download out of it, I didn't download any files...

I greatly appreciate the help! I will give an update once I have results for this. I will be playing with a test program tomorrow to ensure everything works as planned before adding it to my main program. Thank you very much!
