read web page javascript
 

hi there,

I want to use a javascript to read a web page , not to load it in my browser, and get some information for processing. Any ideas how to do that?

Thank you.

You mean you want to scrape it?

Scraping is usually done by downloading the webpage and then parsing it server-side. The server-side code to do so isn't usually Javascript, although it of course can be (if you're using something like Node.js).

For parsing the HTML, here are some recommendations:

BTW, your previous posts would indicate that you wrote "Javascript" when you meant "Java code". DON'T DO THAT.
