Question

I've just started looking into this, I want to scrape my Netgear Router (http://192.168.0.1/setup.cgi?next_file=stattbl.htm) stats into a csv file.

I run Win & Linux, but mainly know C++, any links/solutions?

Was it helpful?

Solution

i know and wrote c++, but for screen scraping i'd rather use some scripting language like python with some handy libraries, e.g. http://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/

especially on linux, python should be installed already (or at least easily installable via package managers).

OTHER TIPS

As MYYN suggested, something like BeautifulSoup or Hpricot really excels at this sort of thing, so if you aren't absolutely convinced that it has to be in C++, you really should look into those(the basics of both python and ruby can be picked up pretty quickly and are certainly much simpler than C++). Alternatively, check out QTDOMDocument and TinyXML++.
