I've put together a Python package for scraping / testing pages that
depend on embedded JavaScript code (without depending on IE, Mozilla
or Konqueror, and with the DOM etc. all implemented in pure Python --
mostly a hacked 4DOM, with some bits from pxdom; the JavaScript
interpreter I'm using ATM is spidermonkey). It's still missing a lot
and is pre-alpha, but it works, just barely.
Anyway, the point of this post is that I'm looking for...

I would like to perform a more classical type of "screen scraping"
than what most people now associate with this term. I only want to
find all the text on the current screen, and obtain associated screen
coordinates. This probably must be done using OCR.
This need only run on Windows. A fairly-pure Python solution would be
ideal because most of the software which would use this functionality
is also written in Python.
The ideal...

Hi, I'm interested in learning about web scraping/site scraping using
Python. Does anybody know of some online resources or have any modules that
are available to help out. O'Reilly published an interesting book
"Spidering Hacks" which covered some great scraping hacks but it is all
written in Perl. I don't know Perl and don't want to. I'm new to
programing and have been advised to start with Python. So far so good ...
but need some...

Am I correct in assuming screen scraping is just the response text sent to
the browser? If so, would that mean that this could not be screen scraped?
function moi() {
var tag = '<a href=';
var tagType1 = '"mail'+'to:', tagType2 = '">', tagType3 = '<\/a>';
var user1 = 'web', user2 = 'master', user3 = '@';
var dom1 = 'danger', dom2 = 'ous', dom3 = 'ly';

I've seen a lot about screen scraping with .NET, mostly in VB.net. I have
been able to convert most of it over, but it is still just very basic stuff.
Can someone help direct me toward some good info / samples on the following:
I want to be able to do 3 things:
1) Set up a module in IBUYSPY Portal (like in the right or left pane) that
simply just scrapes headlines from certain sites.
2) Allow users to set up scraping of certain sites...

I've been working on a web scraping program, and have the basics down.
But I don't understand the parameters.
Normally, you go to a URL (say a reverse yellow pages directory), and enter
some parameters (like area code, phone number, etc.) and POST this back to
the web. Then you parse the response, looking for the data you need.
Ofen I see examples where the data you post contains something like
"AreaCode=503&Number=5551212&x=1&y=2"

I need to scrape specific information from another website, specifically the
prices of precious metals from several different vendors. While I will
credit the vendors as the data source, I do not want to use the format of
their pages, and want the inforamtion consolidated to a single page of my
design.
I did something like this for a client a couple of years ago in ASP, but it
was complex, and I do not have access to the code. A...

I've been asked to extract data from web pages. Given that they are
rendered in HTML and not any sort of XML I'm wondering how to go about
"scraping" such a web page of data.
Can anyone give me any starting place?
Thanks,

Folks:
I am screen scraping a large volume of data from Yahoo Finance each
evening, and parsing with Beautiful Soup.
I was wondering if anyone could give me some pointers on how to make
it less obvious to Yahoo that this is what I am doing, as I fear that
they probably monitor for this type of activity, and will soon ban my
IP.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp
Here is the code in...

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
