  1. Its not Youtube I want to scrape, it's Google results to see how many Youtube videos show up in the top 10. I've decided to scrape all URLs in the top 10 and then check each one individually.
  2. Hi all I want to add a feature in my bot that can state how many Youtube videos are ranking in the top 10 for a given keyword phrase. Can anyone tell me the easiest way of doing this? I've scraped the URLs of the top 10 and could go through them to count the number of youtube URLs, but is there a simpler way? How would you just search the web page source for the number of times "youtube.com/watch" appeared? Any help appreciated as I am a little rusty with Ubot. thanks Andy
  3. OK, its not my computer. I installed uBot on another and I get the same thing there. This is really, really frustrating.
  4. OK, I am beginning to think this is my computer. I went onto another project - to scrape amazon product names, and when I went to choose the attribute of the hyperlink in the product results page, I get this: <A class=title href="http://www.amazon.com/JBuds-Hi-Fi-Noise-Reducing-Buds-Black/dp/B000IG66VS/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1279185745&sr=1-1" jQuery1279185742886="75">JBuds Hi-Fi Noise-Reducing Ear Buds (Black)</A> Notice the jQuery crap again. Do other people get this as well, or is it just my computer?
  5. I am tearing my hair out here. I just cannot get the info I want. I was wondering. When you scrape something, is there a way to modify it within UBOT? e.g. scrape the resource box as innerhtml, but strip out all the jQuery crap?
  6. Well I am stuck here. I have tried looking at the Ezine Article to Wordpress bot and that didn't work, nor did it scrape the resource box properly. I think I'll have a look again tomorrow when I am fresh.
  7. Here is an example bot that tries to scrape the resource box (attached). It saves two files, one of the innertext and one of the innerhtml to the root folder of the application. resource-box-scraper.ubot
  8. The code is the same no matter where I click and view source. Also, I have checked lots of ezine article pages and they are all the same. If you want to try a specific, try this one: http://ezinearticles.com/?What-You-Need-to-Know-to-Become-a-Nurse-Educator-and-Every-Level-of-Practice&id=4657225
  9. Thanks for the reply Tommy, but I am not totally sure I understand - please forgive my ignorance, but I am new to UBot. If I view source code in ANY web browser - IE, Firefox & Chrome, the code shows the same as the upper part of the screenshot above. This is the same whether I use the View -> Source menu from the top, or clicking around the document and right clicking view->source. If I do a scrape page or scrape chosen attribute in UBot, the code that I get for the webpage is as seen in the lower part of the screenshot. If frames were the issue, would they not be visible
  10. Hi I am having an unusual problem at ezine articles. I want to scrape the resource box, so try scraping by the ID "Sig". However, I get more than just the html code found on the page. Look at this image: http://andyjwilliams.co.uk/resource-code.gif The top image is taken from the source code of the page. The bottom code is taken from within UBot, when I try to choose by attribute the ID sig. Scraping the innerhtml of the ID = Sig returns the extra code in the lower screenshot which seems to have jquery code inserted. Is Ubot inserting this? Anyone know how I can get the resou
  11. I am new to UBot, and O.M.G..... OK; Quick question. I am creating my first bot, and want to be able to create folders to store my text output files in, based on a text box in the UI. e.g. someone types "widgets" in the UI, I want to create a folder called "widgets" in the app folder, plus some sub-folders inside the widgets one. Can I do this?
