Help: Rainmeter Skins • WebParser: Getting info for app updates.

Well, I finally got around to looking at the WebParser tutorial page and started out with it and er, got stuck pretty quickly!

Here's a pic of the app I mentioned previously:Notice the Green is the start string, Blue is the captured content and Red is the End string.

Using this info, I tried to create a new skin for checking this but I am unable to get it working. I can't understand the relationship between Parent and Child and how they work. I have read the tutorial up to the second child measure.

First, I'm a bit puzzled about the update rate here, is it an error, or have I missed something?
It states 1000 = 1sec, yet goes on to say that 3600 = an hour? But it's 3.6secs isn't it?
An hour would be 1000 x 60secs x 60mins = 3600000?

Anyway, here's my basic set up:Am I supposed to get the version info from the Parent or Child? I presume it's the Child?
If that's the case, why don't I get any text shown in the meter? I tried with/without .* at the beginning/end of the search criteria, with no luck.

Thanks for your help
