Pulling Data from a Webpage, MD5 Hashing it, And storing IN a Text file.

[phatzilla]

So I need to access a PHP page that has ~600 lines of data (lines are dynamic -- Different every time you visit the page)

The lines are also each a different length.

Line1

Line2

Line3

..

.

~Line600

What i need to do is Have Autoit parse the lines on the Page

Hash Every single Line Via MD5

Save every Hashed Line into a Textfile (1 Hash Per Line)

I already Use the MD5 UDF (Found here : )

Preciate The help, thanks guys

I tried

$textfile = "parsed.txt"

InetGet("http://www.website.com", $textfile, 1)

But it's all clumped up together with the <BR> tags which are useless to me.

Would it be a good idea to replace the BR tags with @CRLF? Or is this just a roundabout way of doing things from scratch?

Okay, i figured out the first part.

$szFile = "parsed.txt"

$szText = FileRead($szFile,FileGetSize($szFile))
$szText = StringReplace($szText, "<br>", @CRLF)
FileDelete($szFile)
FileWrite($szFile,$szText)

That replaces the <BR> tags with @CRLF which gives me fresh lines yay

Now the next step is how to Hash each line with MD5 and replace the file with the output.

I'm not sure how the MD5 function takes input, but try it something like this way: $szText = MD5Function(StringReplace($szText, "<br>", @CRLF))

[phatzilla]

Tried that, it gave me gibberish.

All i really need now is to use the _MD5 Function to hash every line of the previously edited text file

$Hash = _MD5('The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog')

$szFile needs to be read and 'processed' one line at a time. Try the FileReadLine function. The example in the Docs is probably all you need to get you going. Good luck.

I'm a total numbskull, but it doesnt seem to be saving each line with the hashed values

#include "md5.au3"
$file = FileOpen("PARSEDURLS\parsed1.txt", 0)

; Read in lines of text until the EOF is reached
While 1
    $line = FileReadLine($file)
    $Hash = _MD5($line)
$MD5 = Hex($Hash) ; IMPORTANT, REMOVES 0X
Wend

FileClose($file)

Any ideas

The line needs to be written (to a new file. It can be renamed later..) after it is 'processed' (this'll be the last step in the While loop..). See the FileWriteLine function.<br><br>Edit: added last step thing..<br>
