It is possible to copy text from some websites and paste it in notepad? Topic is solved

[Yolomangolo]

I want copy some specific text from 3-4 websites, the problem is the text always changes, but it always has the same word on each line so that could be used as a guide or something?

I'm sorry if I didn't explain it very well, could you tell me what info do you need?

That's the website, I want to check every hour if one of the texts there ends with the word "WTP" and if it does just copy the name of the file and the link. I don't know if this is too hard to do, but if you don't have the time to make an example just tell me what I should learn to do this.

[Yolomangolo]

Yes.

Could you explain me how?

where would the WTP be? is it under the syntax line?

WTP is always going to be in the title along with some numbers. An example would be something like 850430WTP. Since the numbers always change WTP would be only way to 'find' the file (I think?).

It worked but I changed the milliseconds from 3600000 to 1 for testing and got banned for a few hours for suspicious activity, lol. While the temporary ban gets removed I was trying to test this script on other websites changing some things like WTP and the link, but it doesn't work. A random page for this example would be https://www.reddit.com/r/EggLeague/ this is the code I used, but i's not working. I am trying to do the same thing with WTP but in this case it's with the first post.

Code: Select all

#persistent
#singleinstance force
settimer,sub1,10000

sub1:
	urldownloadtofile,https://www.reddit.com/r/EggLeague/
	loop, read, downl.txt
	{
		regexmatch(a_loopreadline,"<td>.+<\/td>",z)
		if z != 
			{
				regexmatch(z,"i).*34563463.*",x)
					if x != 
						fileappend,%x%`n,test.txt
			}
	}
filedelete, downl.txt
return
return

I know I have to change something else but I don't what.

Reddit uses a different type of layout I’ll have to look when I get home but it won’t be for a few hours

Yeah sure, no problem. It's not necessary, I don't really need it for reddit, I just want to understand how it works.
