Beginner question

Hi. I only want to scrape example 2 (the one with "sold.gif"). But I do not manage it to do that, since the information I want to scrape is above the sold indicator (sold.gif) code.

EXAMPLE 1:

div class="heading">
a href="http://www.test.com/object?code=~@URL@~" >~@IGNORE@~

div class="primary_info">
div class="year_heading">~@IGNORE@~ div class="milage_heading">~@IGNORE@~ div class="price_heading">~@IGNORE@~ div class="year">~@IGNORE@~ div class="milage">~@IGNORE@~

div class="price">489

EXAMPLE 2:

div class="heading">
a href="http://www.test.com/object?code=~@URL@~" >~@IGNORE@~

div class="primary_info">
div class="year_heading">~@IGNORE@~ div class="milage_heading">~@IGNORE@~ div class="price_heading">~@IGNORE@~ div class="year">~@IGNORE@~ div class="milage">~@IGNORE@~

div class="price"> img src="sold.gif" alt=""/

Than you for the tips about

Than you for the tips about the IGNORE tag.

I tried what you said. But now it scrapes the listing below/after the one with the "sold" gif.

(By the way. The ~@url@~ for the sold object is what I am trying to scrape)

Don't use the INGORE tag.

Don't use the INGORE tag. We've deprecated it because it was too greedy.

div class="heading">
a href="http://www.test.com/object?code=~@URL@~"
~@DATARECORD@~
class="price"> img src="sold.gif"

That should work.
