Google Search Resulst - How To Find Specific Link

[michelinsy 1]

Hi,
 
i want to test if an specific link exist on a search result page on google. I tried different thinks, but i don't get a solution that work for me fine.
I have search the forum, but there were no post that help me.
 

I have test it with $exist and atributes in the adwanced editor, too. But i can't get the regex in the editor to work.
 
The regex works fine in my text editor to find the link.
 
Any idea?
 
PS: There is a problem so I can not post the code here. I Will try it later

not sure if this will work with it, but something i was doing on a results page, i scraped the element offset which had the result, checked if it contained the "title"

 

Not sure if google use an element offset for their 10 results perpage, but worth checking

I think that might work too but I haven't tried it out so far. Can you please update Michel?

Hi, sry for the late response.

 

The answer does not help me to solve my problem, because there are different Links (and titles) I want to check. But thanks for your effort.

 

For now I have the regex very simple with wildcard, but this can be tricky and maybe will not give me the results I need in the future.

 

The main question I have at the moment is: Why can my editor find the Link with regex and ubot's function regex not?

Im not sure I get what the problem is but I think the problem you are having is if I search "ubot" the result would be

 

<b>ubot</b>studio.com (ubot in bold) ? ? ?

so the exists mighn't work,scrape the list and then do a loop,I searched ubotstudio.com and used that as my link to find

 

Are you using HTTP Get to get your results?if so than remove the <b> </b> tags from the document text,that should work,if you are just using the browser

 

add list to list(%links,$scrape attribute(<class="_Rm">,"innertext"),"Delete","Global")
set(#find this,"www.ubotstudio.com","Global")
set(#position,0,"Global")
loop($list total(%links)) {
    if($comparison($find regular expression($list item(%links,#position),#find this),"> Greater than",$nothing)) {
        then {
            alert("found")
            increment(#position)
        }
        else {
            increment(#position)
        }
    }
}
