IE script - Seach a certain string in a webpage and save that string into an text file

[tradertt]

Hi

Does anyone know how to code a AU3 script that can:

1) Search for a string in the active internet explorer window

2) String can be like

http://www.abc.com

http://www.yahoo.com

http://www.fhd.com

so search for the string http:// (if there are more than 1 text string of http:// then it will paste all the http:// strings.

3) Copy the whole string

4) Paste it in a text file and move on to the next line

5) End the program

Please assist.

Thank you

If all you are trying to do is write the links from a page into a file, you dont need any of the copy/paste nonsense. I would use either IE.au3 and get the LinkCollection or INetGetSource and parse out links with StringRegExp. Then write your findings to a file.

Linkcollection is part of IE.au3 or is it an externel macro?

_IELinkGetCollection -- part of IE.au3

Something like this should work:

#include <IE.au3>

_IEErrorHandlerRegister()

$sURL = "your-webpage.com"

$oIE = _IEAttach($sURL, "url")
If Not IsObj($oIE) Then
    $oIE = _IECreate($sURL)
EndIf

$oLinks = _IELinkGetCollection($oIE)
For $oLink In $oLinks
    FileWriteLine("Links.txt", $oLink.href)
Next

Hi sorry for the late reply. The above does not work as the link that I want to capture is only a TEXT not a Hyperlink

Thank you for submitting your link. It has been submitted for moderator approval and should show up shortly.

You can start linking to us using this link: http://www.arcadecity.net/link.php?action=in&id=126

Take a look at it - It is only a text link - how can I extract only that specific link out

I don't see anything like this on the page you supplied.

There is only text in that page but there is a http:// tect there.

Do you see it?

This is my latest code - however at the portion:

_IELoadWait ($o_object)

I want it to wait till I have submitted the form and it has loaded the next page successfully before viewing the source of the webpage.

how can I do that?

[DaleHohm]

I don't understand your last question.

To get the link you are looking for however, you can use this technique:

#include <IE.au3>
$tryAttach = True
$oIE = _IECreate("http://www.games2web.com/index.php?page=link_trade&submit=1", $tryAttach)
$sAllHTML = _IEBodyReadHTML($oIE) ; you can get all HTML and parse it
$sAllText = _IEBodyReadText($oIE) ; you can get all Text and parse
$oTable = _IETableGetCollection($oIE, 22) ; 23rd table on the page has your text
$sTableText = $oTable.innerText ; get just the text in that table and parse it
