Issue by scraping emails + names

[musician87 2]

Hey guys, I'm trying to scrape emails + names in this format:

testemail@gmail.com , Brown

Anyway seems that I can only scrape for:

mailto:testemail@gmail.com

Is not a big problem, with a text editor I can easily remove all the "mailto:", anyway I cannot scrape also the name. I don't know what happened, but I get always a blank document.

 

Here a screen of the code where I get the error:

If anyone need the website that I'm scraping, I'll send you the link via PM.

 

Thank you so much!

Hi,

 

You could use $replace to remove mailto: from email value as it is saved to the table.

 

For Name value "attribute to scrape" should be "outertext" not "name".

Trying the $replace...for the name was "innertext".

 

Anyway I don't understand why with just a link it works but when I try multiple links it doesn't save data (or at least: the .txt is blank).

Hi,

 

Without looking at your code it would be hard to say why the data is not being saved.

Can I send it through PM?

Please let me know if the code that I sent you helped.

 

To anyone else looking to grab emails from a page this regex works great:

 

 

[\\.\\-_A-Za-z0-9]+?@[\\.\\-A-Za-z0-9]+?[\\.A-Za-z0-9]\{2,\}
