Graphic Images, How do I scrape?

I'm scrapping a shopping site and need to pull down the image of the item as well and the text based items such as id, model, price and description. I can find the name no problem, but how do I get the image?

Any ideas?

The site is www.rsrgroup.com and the image is on the details page.

Thanks for you help.

Richard

Thanks I saw that too. I'm still using the demo version for a proof of concept before I purchase the prof version. Looks like the product will do what it claims to.

Thanks again for the reply.

Sincerely,

Richard

Hi Richard,

You can download images in a script using the session.downloadFile method, which is documented on this page

Please feel free to post a reply if we can be of further help.

Kind regards,
