batibot 0 Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 Anyone had encountered scraping a site that has its content iframed from other site? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
UBotDev 276 Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 Iframes usually have src attribute, so you could scrape it and load page that is iframed in a browser. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
batibot 0 Posted November 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 yes, it has a src but I don't know what command to use so I can load and scrape its contents. I can only see "load html" but not load page or somthing. Any idea what specific command I need to use to get the src contents? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
UBotDev 276 Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 This is what I meant: http://www.ubotstudio.com/forum/index.php?/topic/14275-popup-dont-work/&do=findComment&comment=79641 I think you could use the same approach for pages that use iframes....

batibot 0 Posted November 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 the problem is that I don't want to load that iframe in the browser, I just want to get its data in the background.I tried using the example you shown in other post but it overwrites my current browser.Is there a way to just navigate to that iframe src in the background while the current browser has something else in it?

UBotDev 276 Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 Well just use "in new browser" command if you don't want to load it in your main browser, I also mentioned that in one of the posts from the topic I linked above... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
