I have heard about your parsing program for charts and was wondering if you know of any "generic" type of program that would enable me to adjust what I was looking to parse out of a standardize website that I now have to manually do about 30 times a day?

This is not horse related.

Thanks!!

Hi,

This is not the best place to ask me a question -- I only look in "Off Topic" once in a while.

I'm not sure I understand your question -- there is some other web page you are looking to extract something out of and you're looking for a generic web page parser that could be adjusted to your needs? That it?

No, I'm not aware of anything unless it is an XML page you are parsing. XML is designed to be parsed to extract information, while HTML is designed to be parsed for display (by the browser).

But depending on what you're doing, it could be either incredibly trivial to extract whatever you want to extract with a simple script, or it could be very difficult.

Send me an email if you want to pursue this...
