jewcat 0 Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 having a hell of a time trying to load the article text in a file here on this particular article site. i have tried $page scrape $scrape chosen attribute. tried loading it into a variable, tried loading it into a list. Just can't seem to pull the data from here. Any suggestions? Demo article url: http://www.articledashboard.com/Article/Celebrity-Gossip--Celeb-Relationships-/1415867 I tried $page scraping between the <p></p>, which I thought would be the best option, but than I discovered it was scraping a different element elsewhere on the page. So I tried stepping up and scraping between the <td></td> and it returns a blank value. Any suggestions? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jewcat 0 Posted March 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 problem solved. selecting a table element or div by position has worked in most cases. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
