Help/Tutorial - Clicking "keyword/search phrase" link / Email address scrape

[ssqmm 0]

Hi All,

 

I'm a newbie to Ubot, and I'm trying to figure out where I can find tutorials to do the following:

 

- Make the bot search for "key phrases" in the web page and click on it, if it is a link (i.e: search for "about us" on a web page.. and then make the bot click it if it is a link).

 

- Make a bot to search for email addresses in an entire website and scrape it into a list

 

If any one can direct me to any tutorials that would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thank you

I think you should start here:

http://ubotstudio.com/tutorials.aspx

 

-code for clicking about us:

click(<innertext="about us">, "Left Click", "No")

-scraping email is a bit more complicated, since it can be displayed in different ways on different pages, and you should probably use regular expression.

 

Hope that helps.

Thanks.. appreciate the quick help!

 

I tried the code.. but for some reason when I run the script it doesn't do anything. Any idea what may be the problem?

It might be text casing (try with "About Us") or anything else...I can't help you much without the actual html you are seeing there (this might work but it could potentially click link twice

 

if there are 2 matches on the page)

 

I think you should really go through tutorials so you get a better understanding of UBot and even find your own way to click that text (It's not that hard, you just go into select element mode and click on that link, and UBot should find the best identifier).
