mwpeck Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 I'm trying to process data from a web page, I know how to use _IEBodyReadText and _IEBodyReadHTML, I want to read the HTML but only lines that begin with <td class="formContent"> So what I want to do is read the HTML, and any line with <td class="formContent"> will be set to an array for later usage. The problem is, is it possible to do that? I know you could write the html to a text file then read the text file by line, but I would prefer to not use a text file, just have the program handle all of it internally.

mwpeck Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 Hmmmmm, here's where I'm sitting at trying to just get it to show all the td classes: $sText = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "td") For $sTxt In $sText MsgBox(0, "", "Class Name: " & $sTxt.class) Next But its crashing as soon as I get there. I am running Vista so I have to require admin which for some reason stops the console log and doesnt show anything other than exiting as soon as I give it permission (program still runs but I dont see any errors appear in the log when it crashes).

Just replace .class with .outerhtml. Ohhh didn't realize you could do it Psalty's way... @PsaltyDS... but your a penguin surely you must be more afraid of vista then a little water... hehehe Edited July 1, 2008 by someone While ProcessExists('Andrews bad day.exe') BlockInput(1) SoundPlay('Music.wav') SoundSetWaveVolume('Louder') WEnd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two things I'm glad to have never experienced: Waterboarding and Windows Vista On the other problem, try .ClassName instead of .class: $colTD = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "td") $iTD = @extended Msgbox(64, "Table Data", "There are " & $iTD & " TD tags in the collection.") For $oTD In $colTD MsgBox(0, "", "Class Name: " & $oTD.ClassName) Next Edited July 1, 2008 by PsaltyDS Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...

mwpeck Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 Two things I'm glad to have never experienced: Waterboarding and Windows VistaVista isnt bad once you get use to the changes. Just like XP it sucked when it first came out (from what I heard) but its much more stable now. Performance wise it doesnt seem any slower than XP was. $sText = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "td") For $sTxt In $sText If ($sTxt.ClassName == "formContent") Then FileWriteLine($file, $sTxt.innertext) ;MsgBox(0, "", "Class Name: " & $sTxt.outerHTML) EndIf Next Seemed to pull the correct text I was looking for (wrote to a text file for testing purposes). Now, next part, how can I write the text it pulls to an array? I know how arrays work and what not but I am not fully clear on how $sTxt.innertext works. It seems similar to an array (each pass through the loop gives different results) but if I try to set $array = $sTxt.innertext (i starts at 0 and increments each time the class formContent is found), it just crashes.

PsaltyDS Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 $colTD = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "td") $iTD = @extended Global $avTD[$iTD + 1]; max array size $iTD = 0 For $oTD In $colTD If $oTD.ClassName = "formContent" Then $iTD += 1 $avTD[$iTD] = $oTD.InnerText EndIf Next $avTD[0] = $iTD; [0] = count ReDim $avTD[$iTD + 1]; resize to used elements only _ArrayDisplay($avTD, "Matching TD Tags") Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...

mwpeck Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 Hmmmm......its crashing on the _ArrayDisplay line, if I call a message box to show the $avTD[$iTD] in every iteration of the loop it shows what it should, but the _ArrayDisplay() is crashing out (commenting it out stops it from crashing). Really wish the console would work with #requireadmin so I could see the errors that are popping up...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
