Dutch 4 Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 I'm trying to use $scrape table to scrape a table that extends over many pages. How do you scrape a table on one page and then go to the next page, scrape the table on that page and add it to the end of the previously scraped page. I really don't want to have a file for each page/table that it scrapes. Any suggestions? Dutch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LoWrIdErTJ - BotGuru 904 Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 I would scrape table. add it to a list, rinse and repeat table scrape then add to list. The list will end up being comma delimited, and can save it as a .csv Quote Link to post Share on other sites
UBotBuddy 331 Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 This is one of those times we need a Add to List from a Table Column or Row. I have begged for this since v3.5. Table scrape is such a powerful function yet there are still shortcomings. TJ's solution is still the best alternative for now. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Table scrape is such a powerful function yet there are still shortcomings. TJ's solution is still the best alternative for now. I would love that function as well. There are work arounds for it but it would be so much easier if there were a simple command that would let you add a row or a column to a list. Where is the petition for me to sign?
