Looping through a dynamic URL

[semjuice 0]

I'm trying to figure out how to loop through a single URL with a dynamic ID, and then scrape the data on that page, and proceed to the next record (autoincrementing by 1) . I want to define which ID to start at, and how many loops to run. The process would be:

 

1. Define the starting id (ex. #15). I have a textbox element called #startnum

2. Nav to a domain with that starting id (ex.http://www.domain.com/index.php?id=15)

3. Scrape data (I can figure that part out

4. Then proceed to the next record (http://www.domain.com/index.php?id=16), and scrape data on that page. It will always increment by 1

5. Complete this loop X number of times (Defined by another textbox element #loopcount). So if I put in #loopcount of 2, it would do records 15 and 16

 

Probably easily solved by more experienced folks...any help would be appreciated!

Need to make a variable for a counter.

 

$variable = 1

 

Loop (X tumber of times)

navigate http://www.domain.com/index.php?id=$variable

scrape

inc $variable

 

That will keep looping and incrementing

Thanks Aaron, didn't realize there was a INC/DEC feature BTW, tried to PM you but it says you can't receive PM's, so I emailed your Yahoo account.
