I use a web page that brings up a table with a series of links that look
like this...
<a href="javascript:GetAgent('MA142')">
these links open pages that look like this...
http://info.webpage.com/Roster/Scrip...sp?PubID=MA142
I'd like to use a script to sequentially trigger each link to open the pages
one at a time so I can get the info from the pages that open with the links.
Can someone help by showing some example code as to how to either trigger
the GetAgent script or to send the full URL... I'm a pretty lousy scripter.
I appreciate the help!
If the pages you are manipulating are *not* on your own site, then
you will need to do some extra work to bypass the cross-domian
security features, but none the less , the notes below might help
Use an <iframe name="IFviewpages" onload="doSomething()"
src="blank.html"></iframe>
Each time a page loads in the iframe, your function would get called.
in that function you can obtain the links
self.oIFviewpages=self.document.getElementById("IF viewpages")
self.aLinks=self.oIFviewpages.contentWindow.docume nt.getElementsByTagName("A")
you can iterate through these and run them into a second iframe
setup like the first with it's own onload funtion to parse the page ,
then trigger the next link in the array
There is also XMLHTTP , which could be more usefull in retrieveing
the page contents.
