Scraping ASP,NET sites

Hi,

I am struggling with scraping asp.net sites and I have read the blog entry (http://blog.screen-scraper.com/2008/06/04/scraping-aspnet-sites) but I am still having issues with it.

I have proxied all steps through the site, included all listings as scrapeable files and tried to run them in order, or when appropriate called in certain files. Many of the scrapeable files do not have any get or post parameters. I get to initial search page of the site and it returns a server error page and in the screen scraper log for scraping session it returns an Error Code 500. I can not find any VIEWSTATE OR EVENTTARGET parameters anywhere.

I am missing a big piece of information somewhere and I'm getting very frustrated. The sites I am trying to scrape are www.diversifiedstaff.com & www.wellsfargo.com (the open positions or careers page of both sites)but I am just running into a brick wall.

Could you please explain the VIEWSTATE and EVENTTARGET parameters for me and give examples of these please. Many companies are changing to asp.net and I can't seem to figure it out.

Please respond ASAP to [email protected] and I can send what I have so far and you can see what I have written and the errors I am getting.

Help is GREATLY appreciated!
