hi guys,

 

is $eval broken or am i doing it wrong? I am trying to use the snippet posted here.

 

"{1}".replace(/[^a-zA-Z 0-9\-_\`\~\!\@\#\$\%\^\&\*\(\)\.\,\:\;\?\']+/g,"");

{1} being your scraped data variable

You need to be on a page which have javascript in order to run javascript or use $eval

hmm, can you provide tips on how to remove those unwanted characters locally ?

I think you have to use $next list item instead of having the list (inside the set command)
