Choller 3 Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 I'm trying to scrape facebook fan pages from keywords I use.Initially you only get 10 results. Then you have to click on an ajax button to get more results. So when you arrive you'll be at: http://www.facebook.com/search.php?q=girls But to get more results you'll go to http://www.facebook.com/ajax/search/blendedsearch/more.php?q=girls&s=10 When you enter that URL into UBOT... ubot doesn't return anything. Is it possible to display more results? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Praney Behl 314 Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 I see what the problem you are going through, but I think there should be a work around for it.. I will look into it and get back.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Praney Behl 314 Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 I can't find a way to make it work. I will wait for Seth or Lilly to answer your question. Praney Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IRobot 43 Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 Try looking at the javascript on the page; this can be triggered using Ubot's 'run javascript' command. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Choller 3 Posted November 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 ok. Thanks for trying PraneyBehl. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Praney Behl 314 Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 The only thing I see on the page is an async call made to : http://www.facebook.com/ajax/search/blendedsearch/more.php?q=girls&s=10 Which Ubot is not making and trying to navigate to it Same thing if I copy paste the link address in any browser it doesn't work, maybe it should be an asynchronous call to the server.

Seth Turin 223 Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 are you navigating to that page or clicking through to get to that page? when I enter the url into firefox by itself, it also gives me a blank page. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

theninjamanz 29 Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 clicking through FB uses Javscript to fire many of those buttons, that is where I think you should be looking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
