Scrape With Regex

[allcapone1912 7]

hi,heed some help

 

i am trying to scrape home year from zillow

navigate("http://www.zillow.com/homes/3804 Emerson Dr%0960176_rb/","Wait")
wait for element(<class="zsg-content-header addr">,"","Appear")
wait(3)
add list to list(%home year,$scrape attribute(<innertext=r"Built in ">,"innertext"),"Delete","Global")

ive tried all combination with scrape attribute with no results so i think it can be done only with regex

but i don't know regex very well,i just start to learn it

That site just does not play very well for me so I changed the user agent to iPhone (I'm guessing you did as well?) and was able to load a page (it looks like it redirects so that might be something you can catch and load the url directly)

Anyways this will set a year variable with the year it was built in:

set user agent("iPhone")
navigate("http://www.zillow.com/homes/3804%20Emerson%20Dr%0960176_rb/", "Wait")
wait for element(<class="zsg-content-header addr">, "", "Appear")
wait(3)
set(#facts, $scrape attribute(<class="fact-group-container zsg-content-component top-facts">, "innertext"), "Global")
set(#year, $find regular expression(#facts, "(?<=Built\\sin\\s)\\d\{4,4\}"), "Global")

Great! So are you all set AC?

You can also try this:

add list to list(%home year,$scrape attribute(<innertext=w"Built in ????">,"innertext"),"Delete","Global")

The "?" is another wildcard except it focuses on single characters so when used like this it will find a 4 digit year.
