Script to get website data and save to file

[justsomenoob]

As the title suggests i would like a script to grab some data from a website and save it to a text file

The site in question is a lotteries site https://gnetwork.com.au/oz-lotto-results/

All i need it to do is grab the latest results and save to a file, preferrably showing the date and columns with the results below it as shown on the site

I have no idea how to go about it or the skill to code it. Any help is appreciated

All you have to do is :
- grab the source code of the page using Inet, winhttp, curl, etc
- parse the content of the table  <table id="tablepress-1"   to an array
the latest daily results are in  <tbody  on  row-2 
- then use the content of this array to write to a file, fill a listview...

BTW instead of a .txt file you might build a .csv

As you can see from mikell's response above, we are more than happy to help with the first problem so long as you understand we're here to guide, not write it for you. Take what suggestions you receive and try something on your own. If you get stuck, post your code (even non-running) here and we will do our best to assist.

I suggest beginning with the first bullet. If you search the forum there are numerous examples of obtaining a page's source that you can study and modify to your needs.
