Parsing url from a html

[Azevedo 2]

Hey,

I'm building this script to download images from google images search.

Baiscally i have this part:

$url = "https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&tbm=isch&q=flinstones"
$sData = InetRead( $url )
$stream = BinaryToString( $sData )

Which stores the html content into a variable $stream. The images to download a are in the pattern:

"imgurl=http://........jpg"

My question is: How do I parse those image URLs using RegEx inside $stream in an array like

image[1]="http://...."

image[2]="http://...."

thanks

I'd use an xml dom object, or load into a hidden IE, and use:

_IEImgGetCollection

loop through the collection and get the .src

You will have to wait for the RegExp sample ..here

#include <Array.au3>
$html = '<img class="ipsUserPhoto ipsUserPhoto_mini" alt="Are my AutoIt EXEs really infected? - last post by JLogan3o13" src="http://src1g?_r=1342793095"/>' & @CRLF & _
'<img class="ipsUserPhoto ipsUserPhoto_mini" alt="Are my AutoIt EXEs really infected? - last post by JLogan3o13" src="http://src1g?_r=1342793095"/>'
$array = StringRegExp($html, '\<img.*src\=\"(.*)\"', 3)

That may only get the thumbnails. To get the original images, this may serve you well:

#include <Inet.au3>
#include <Array.au3>
$sURL = "https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&tbm=isch&q=flinstones"
$sData = _InetGetSource($sURL)
$aImages = StringRegExp($sData, 'imgurl=(.*?)&amp;', 3)
_ArrayDisplay($aImages)

Wonderful, thats what I was looking for!
