As of now I have the loop number as a variable reliant on a difference of a scraped position divided by 30 under the math.ceil() javascript. Works great. But sometimes there are less than 30 results to a page, so it stops. What should I tell script? The number I scrape is between two strong tags, so if I use if and search page, I was thinking I could tell it to search for <strong>x</strong> where x is any number, is that possible?

More or less, i'm trying to scrape this page http://www.yellowpages.com/boston-ma/dentist?g=Boston,+MA for the business title url

Zap, So that works, but i want to be able to scrape every first link out of that set on the page.

Trying to scrape yp.com. I understand the wildcards concept and I wish it would work!!! Keep getting these http://www.yellowpages.com/boston-ma/mip/dental-arts-of-boston-13316488?lid=166478893 http://www.yellowpages.com/boston-ma/mip/dental-arts-of-boston-13316488/map?lid=166478893 http://www.yellowpages.com/boston-ma/mip/dental-arts-of-boston-13316488/reviews?lid=166478893 http://www.yellowpages.com/boston-ma/mip/dental-arts-of-boston-13316488/email_form?lid=166478893 http://www.yellowpages.com/boston-ma/mip/dental-arts-of-boston-13316488/send_mobile?lid=166478893 http://www.yellowpages.c

thanks a lot

I'd really like to utilize this script, keeps returning, unable to obtain captcha image.

sorry, wrong forum

when writing the script to register an account and they ask for the password again, which i will hopefully be loading from a list of several passwords. What should I tell the script? load position 1 two times, or load from list position 1 max 2 times then next. someone else has had to have run into this before.

so, scraping ezine articles, how do i make sure i always scrape a new article? so, scrape new article each time, post to blog, yatta yatta yatta. (I mentioned the bisque.) seinfeld reference, sorry was watching tonight. Thanks!
