Saving a word from a webpage


Recommended Posts

Hey again guys

I have a script that looks on a webpage for "<". It works fine and says if it has found it or not. But if it finds it, I want it to save what comes after it up to a ">". Example:

The webpage contains "<Hello There>"

I want it to save just "Hello There" in a txt file.

Here is my code:

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <IE.au3>

GUICreate("Title", 300, 300)


$leech = GUICtrlCreateButton ("Check",  10, 40, 100)
$exit = GUICtrlCreateButton ( "Exit",  10, 70, 100)
$id = guictrlcreateinput ( "Enter ID Here", 10,10,170)





;--------------------------------------
GUISetState ()
While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
;--------------------------------------
        
        
    ;Red X
        Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop
    ;Red X Stop
        
;--------------------------------------
            
            
        Case $msg = $leech
            $idcheck = GUIctrlread ($id)
            If $idcheck = "Enter ID Here" Then
                MSgbox (0, "Error", "You didnt enter an ID")
            Else
            Msgbox (0, "ID Check", "The ID you entered was " & $idcheck)
            
            $oIE = _IECreate()
_IENavigate($oIE, "www.websitehere.com" & $idcheck)
        $sText = _IEBodyReadText($oIE)
        If StringInStr($sText, "<") Then
Msgbox (0, "", "Found")
Else
MSGbox (0, "", "NotFound")
EndIf
            
            
            
            
            Endif

    
            
            
        Case $msg = $exit
            exit
    EndSelect
Wend

Any help would be appreciated.

Look for StringBetween in the help file, it returns an array so your results will be in the elements such as

$aArray = _StringBetween(sText, "<", ">")

MsgBox(0, 0, $aArray[0])

MsgBox(0, 0, $aArray[1])

MsgBox(0, 0, $aArray[2])

etc...

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.
