civilcalc Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 Ok,I have been dabbling in extracting data from a website called www.betfair.com so far so good, I can extract all the data I need.But I want to transmit data to the site. Using a Http analyser I have intercepted the following code when I try to place a bet using the website.<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"><html><head> <title>Betfair - online sports betting exchange, bet on football & horse racing fixed odds</title><script language="Javascript">var place = parent.parent.main;place.interface_compareVersions("V6.3.0-8");// function returnBetMessage(){ var oBetResults = new place.m_BPRC(); var oBets = new place.m_BC(); var oRunner = place.m_R(7758878,22,4869366,'Spain',1,false, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null,null,null,null,null); var oBet = place.make_placedBet(null,4.3,100.0,'B',oRunner); place.m_ABTBC(oBet, oBets);//oBets.add(oBet); var oBetResult = place.make_betResult(false,'EXCEEDED_EXPOSURE_OR_AVAILABLE_TO_BET_BALANCE','Account Exceeded Exposure Limit or Available to Bet Balance.',null,0.0,0.0); place.m_ABTBC(oBetResult, oBetResults);place.interface_setBetPlacementResults(oBets, oBetResults);place.interface_setBetPlacementAttibutes();// }// returnBetMessage();</script></head><body></body></html>The lines var oRunner and var oBet are the ones that I think i need, but how do i send this data to the site??The target is http://www.betfair.com/betting/BetsManipulationAction.dothanks in advancedavid

johna007 Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 You could try to use the Betfair FreeAPI ? johna007
civilcalc Posted June 20, 2006 Author Posted June 20, 2006 I would but I am fairly new to programming, and the api is way above me, i can just about use autoit to do what i want. the api looks very difficult for a complete novice.
