screen-scraper public support

Hello!

I am having a difficult time accessing the data scrapped into a dataset (multiple records). I have no trouble retrieving the single session variables and the Log shows my DataSet is being populated.

I am using ASP.NET (Web Matrix; fairly new to ASP.NET) and cannot seem to get the class structure right. Could you provide a generic sample of retrieving info from a Screen Scraper DataSet via ASP.NET (including DIM)?

Thank you!

Hello,

I'm trying to use screen-scraper with PHP. I have the remote_scraping_session.php file in the same folder as my scrape2.php (this is my test file). I have not made any changes to remote_scraping_session.php.

Here is my screen-scraper setup:
===============================
PROXY SESSIONS
-IGNXBOX
SCRAPING SESSIONS
-IGNXBOX
-ign2
-IGNXBOX
===============================

Source Code for scrape2.php:

Hello. I've been working with Screen-Scraper tonight and I really love this program!! I'm having a problem though. I'm currently running Windows XP Pro with IIS installed and running. I have installed the program as a service and when I attempt to start the server it "Fails". Here is my wrapper log (This is where it posted the error):
--------------------------------------------------------------
ERROR | wrapper | 2004/10/23 07:17:11 | The screen-scraper service was launched, but failed to start.

Hi,
It's me again. I'm planning to use screen scraper to retrieve search results from a site. I found out that it supports .Net scripting. Is it possible to make a web app that has a search module where a user can type in any search criteria then use a script to invoke screen-scraper to scrape sites to retrieve info about such criteria?

I have installed screen-scraper an I am trying to execute some scripts in VBscript and/or Jscript.

When I go to the script menu, the only choices I have available are Interpreted Java, JavaScript, and Python. I have the windows scripting host installed. I can run cscript or wscript and they both work. I am running on WIndows XP Pro SP1.

Anyone have any ideas ??

Hi,
Where do I find the weather & slashdot examples?

Hi,
just dwnloaded the windows trial version,,,but it wont install on my machine. I'm running windows 2000. The message goes like this:
Assertion failed!
../../../src/share/native/sun/awt/font/fontmanage...
line: 418

Expression: offset < fFileSize
:( :(

Hi,

I downloaded the trial before I buy it. But everything works except the COM for VB/ASP. So basically the tool works but the integration with my application fails.

I am using Win XP Pro/ Latest MDAC/ Latest Java Runtimes

I registered the DLL but I still get the message "error creating active x object" Error 429.

Don't know what is wrong. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Hello,

Seems Screen Scraper will not move past an HTTPS login screen. After I type in a user name and password in the browser window, the screen just sits there and eventually times out.

What am I doing wrong?

I would like to be able to automate screen scraper so that when an event happens on my web page (say a confirmation to a pop-up), that screen scraper gets the information on the screen and ultimately, would put the information into a readable format (say XML).

Thanks in advance
