Screen Scraper Noob - Need help extracting to Excel/.CSV file
Hey guys,
I'm very new at this and I have (basically) no experience with coding. I am "tech-saavy" so hopefully I can understand what to do, if anyone is willing to help me.
So basically, I've been trying to scrape doctors names and addresses off of a website. I've been able to make extractor patterns that extract the ~@name@~, ~@address@~, and ~@phone@~, off of the website... but I am unable to take those extractions and make use of them. I basically want them to be in a .csv file, each in their own columns, so I can use them later to create mailing labels. Could anyone be of help?

Also, (if it's needed to know) I am using SS on a Mac...
Same for me
I'm trying to do the same kind of thing, still can't.
That looks like a pretty easy
That looks like a pretty easy scrape. If you have been able to extract the data you want, and iterate pages you could just use a script on my samples page to write them out to CSV.
Still don't think i'm doing
Still don't think i'm doing it right. :( I feel like I know what i'm doing...but when it comes down to it... i seriously don't have a clue what I'm doing.
I copy pasted the code you directed me to... I used the outputFile = session.getName() + ".csv"; instead of me inputting the name by itself...
What am I missing? Do I need a script that saves the file to my desktop?
The line outputFile =
The line
Tells me that the output CSV will be in your screen-scraper directory, but aside from that I can't tell.
