Hi
I am building an app that accesses and downloads a website, [sadly there's no convenient API or mobile site, I download the standard webpage] however there are images on the page and javascript styling that formats the information. The website is taking between 3-5 seconds to download of wifi which means it's taking up to 30 seconds when I've tested it on my cellular connection on the iPhone itself.
All i want is the raw data to manipulate. Is there a way to request just that data and not download the images / javascript etc, or am I not downloading in the first instance and it's just going to take that long to download?
Thanks
