@Grovkillen, I don't know, I was just passing along what they told me. What I did learn is that if you just download the html, you won't find those values in there anywhere. So I suppose they are delivering pictures rather than text data. Maybe those pictures are created server-side, I'm not sure. I...

I just saw that today and joined up! They sure do make it easy!

Hi, JRL, thanks for the suggestion. In the end, I decided to create a small ram drive, and I wrote my file to there, and read and parsed the answer. Because the drive is in memory, it's fast, it won't wear a groove in my hard drive, and so that's an acceptable substitute for reading from the console...

I've asked some people to look into it, one tells me that the values are encrypted. Have a few more inquiries out there.

One more user that wants it!! That's over 300, by my count!

Hi, I've never tried this before, but I have a dos program that returns data to the console periodically as it is running. I have created a small batch file to simulate its output: CLS ECHO OFF FOR /L %%A IN (1,1,10) DO ( TIMEOUT /T 5 >NUL ECHO %%A ) ECHO DONE The batch file output looks like this, ...

Thanks. It's difficult for me to say, because I don't understand what you're talking about!! :D That said, when I look at the HTML, I think these two things are what make this page work: 1. The red box highlights for a few seconds when I hover over any of the colored prices 2. I think the ratechange...

Hi all, I'm trying to grab some values off a public web page, not sure how to approach this. I looked at the underlying HTML, and while the container is pretty well defined, there don't seem to be any values I can capture. The web page: https://finance.yahoo.com/chart/SPY#eyJpbnRlcnZhbCI6ImRheSIsInB...

Maybe not required... I found a Powershell script that does the trick here:

This seems to be widely used in API's I've looked at lately.

Thanks for looking into it. I have to believe this has a lot to do with Windows Server (NT) vs. Windows desktop. I assume you're running the latter. I can live with the way it works for now.

Thanks again.

Grovkillen,

I just wanted to say that script of yours is genius. Thank you for that.

Marcus, thanks very much for making that work, I very much appreciate your efforts to solve the issue. There are a couple things I wanted to bring to your attention: 1) I eliminated the chromedriver.exe popup by unchecking the box that said "run this dialog each time..." 2) I was looking through the...

details are there, thanks

I did a log from Filezilla, this was in it, and may be the issue: Status: Server sent passive reply with unroutable address. Using server address instead. I think this means Filezilla is doing a workaround, ignoring the incorrect passive reply and substituting its own best guess. I'm guessing that M...
