IBot 1 Posted November 11, 2010 Report Share Posted November 11, 2010 Hi UBoters, For a long time now I used IMacro to create small bots and moved to UBot few days back and I am loving it OK back to business... I have one page that I am trying to scrape data from but have small problem... Page I am trying to scrape is similar to old Free Google Keyword tool without the Captcha... here is video of the page and data to scrape: http://bit.ly/9B8nSf so the process is as follows: Navigate to page => Insert Word in to field (word inserted from feed.txt file which is on my HD) => Click Submit Button => Save scraped data to a List => Than save all to .csv file Everything above is working as I want it (looping and all other) but problem is in saved data... it all comes in first column all data same as it did in "Building a Keyword Research Bot (Old Version)" Video Here is the link to video http://vimeo.com/6805724 When I chose data to be scraped I go with outherhtml and use wildcard: <TD class=darkgray12 vAlign=top align=left>*</TD> Now entire table is scraped like this: Timestamp Line 1First Name Line 1Last Name Line 1Email Line 1Timestamp Line 2First Name Line 2Last Name Line 2Email Line 2Timestamp Line 3First Name Line 3Last Name Line 3Email Line 3 And I want it in .csv like this: Timestamp Line 1 First Name Line 1 Last Name Line 1 Email Line 1Timestamp Line 2 First Name Line 2 Last Name Line 2 Email Line 2Timestamp Line 3 First Name Line 3 Last Name Line 3 Email Line 3 I have tried to use loop option and than add to new list as shown in "Building a Keyword Research Bot (Old Version)" (minute 24 in video) but it comes back with this error: http://www.myonlineoffice.info/video/2010-11-11_1557.png and can not finish creating table, I have loop cycles as list total as you can see from the image above... Thank you all in advance for your help, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you all in advance for your help, For that error, simple go to the variable commands and drag in the Set List Position command. Set the content the parameter window for that command to 0. Place the command outside of the loop, not inside it. Have it before the loop. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
