Well, are you trying to save one article at a time with this bot?

 

I am also assuming you are scraping the site http://www.articledashboard.com

evyta,

 

Check this bot out.

 

Let's get you going one step at a time. This is one way to create a list.

 

Click on one of the articles and in the right hand column look for the link "Ezine Ready".

 

I would go here to scrape your articles. The reason is that this listing of the articles will not have Google's Adsense getting in the way of your scraping.

 

Now the bot I gave you can be modified to scrape the URL rather than the Innertext that way you can loop thru that list to get to the "Ezine Ready" page.

 

Now if you still want to create a csv file then we will have to scale your bot up some.

Just add the data to a table.

 

The way I do it is scrape to a list then add the list to a table. Then when you save a table to file it goes in CSV format.
