Hi,
If you just need a simple datafield you can also use: Code: 123456789101112131415161718192021 require('socket.http')
socket.http.TIMEOUT = 5
-- Get data from website
local data = socket.http.request('http://openrb.com')
-- Check if data is received
if not data then
log('No data found')
return
end
-- Find your data
for i in string.gmatch(data, '<body>.-</body>') do
if i ~= nil then
searched_data = i:match([[<h2>(.-)</h2>]])
if i ~= nil then
log(searched_data)
end
end
endErwin

Hi, Erwin van der Zwar:
Thanks for your help. Yes, it is a simple data capture, use your code but it is not registering anything to me.

Hi,
The data is now fetched between <h2> </h2> fields but i don't know the fields in your html mark-up so you have to check that and change it to those.. log(data) to see your complete reply from your url source.. or right click your source in the browser and select 'view source code' to see the structure of the site you read..

Hi,
I adjusted the sample to a (tested) version to fetch all the main topics from this forum Code: 12345678910111213141516171819202122232425 require('socket.http')
socket.http.TIMEOUT = 5
-- Get data from website
local data = socket.http.request('http://forum.logicmachine.net')
-- Check if data is received
if not data then
log('No data found')
return
end
-- Find your data
for i in string.gmatch(data, '<body>.-</body>') do
if i ~= nil then
for j in string.gmatch(i, '<a href="forumdisplay.-</a>') do
if j ~= nil then
searched_data = j:match([[">(.-)</a>]])
if searched_data ~= nil then
log(searched_data)
end
end
end
end
endBR, Erwin |
