I am playing with java and by using a html parser was able to create a class that strips high score info in a simple text format seperated by a pipe: let me know what u think! I got the html parser code from http://htmlparser.sourceforge.net/ /* * Created on Jul 14, 2006 * */ package my.runescape; import org.htmlparser.Node; import org.htmlparser.Parser; import org.htmlparser.nodes.TagNode; import org.htmlparser.nodes.TextNode; import org.htmlparser.tags.LinkTag; import org.htmlparser.tags.TableColumn; import org.htmlparser.tags.TableRow; import org.htmlparser.util.NodeIterator; import org.htmlparser.util.NodeList; import org.htmlparser.util.ParserException; /** */ public class FirstTest { private StringBuffer list = new StringBuffer(); public static void main(String[] args) { FirstTest mine = new FirstTest(); mine.start(); System.out.println(mine.list.toString()); } private void start() { Parser parser; try { parser = new Parser ("http://hiscore.runescape.com/lang/en/aff/runescape/hiscorepersonal.ws?user1=simeon_creel"); NodeIterator i = parser.elements (); while ((i.hasMoreNodes ())){ this.processMyNodes(i.nextNode ()); } } catch (ParserException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } } /** */ private void processMyNodes(Node node) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub if (node instanceof TagNode) { // downcast to TagNode TagNode tag = (TagNode)node; if(node instanceof TableRow){ // downcast to TableRow TableRow tbRow = (TableRow)node; if (tbRow.getColumnCount()>0) { TableColumn[] tbCols = tbRow.getColumns(); for (int i = 0; i < tbCols.length; i++) { if (tbCols[i].getLastChild() instanceof LinkTag){ LinkTag link = (LinkTag)tbCols[i].getLastChild(); list.append("|"+link.getLinkText()); } else if (tbCols[i].getLastChild() instanceof TextNode) { // downcast to TextNode TextNode text = (TextNode)tbCols[i].getLastChild(); // do whatever processing you want with the text if (!text.getText().equalsIgnoreCase(" ")) list.append("|"+text.getText()); }//end of else if }//end of For loop } } NodeList nl = tag.getChildren (); if (null != nl){ try { for (NodeIterator i = nl.elements (); i.hasMoreNodes(); ) processMyNodes (i.nextNode ()); } catch (ParserException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); }// End of Catch }// End of if null }// End of if node }//end of function }
