[Solved] Scraping text that has no pattern?

[TheMcD 6]

Alexa lists 100 backlinks to a web site, for example for bodybuilding.com:

 

http://www.alexa.com/site/linksin;0/bodybuilding.com

http://www.alexa.com/site/linksin;4/bodybuilding.com

 

I want to grab the pages listed below the domain, but there does not seem to be a text or HTML pattern that I can use to pull out the URLs, example listing.

 

Anyone have an idea of how to grab the text of the URLs (since they are shown as text, not actual links)?

 

Thanks,

Troy

Hey Troy, here ya go:

 

clear list(%urls)

navigate("http://www.alexa.com/site/linksin;0/bodybuilding.com", "Wait")

add list to list(%urls, $page scrape("<p>", "<br>

</p>"), "Delete", "Global")

Hey John,

 

Thanks. I had started trying it a different way. But looking at your code.. clean smooth and perfect.

 

I am adding this to my "knowledge-base".

 

Thanks again.

Sometimes, I am not actually into codes being made, but rather on how can I learn to understand it..http://imagicon.info/cat/5-34/vbulletin-wink.gif
