Loved the piece. I am also in the field of data mining to look cool like everybody else, we call ourselves "Enterprise Intelligence" or simply "EI"

I am yet to meet a man who can motivate me with money enough to sacrifice my interests.

How do you make a crawler that understands concepts?With NLP you can identify words and such.A concept is about a philosophy of something.This is about perception and attitudes.How does one code a system that can read information and tell you the gist of the story?Like a personal assistant.

I'm thinking if I can make one which can read businessdaily and other news feeds integrate it with my signals system I can automate my trading system by embedding my analysis skills in it.The potential is ridiculous.Now let me meditate on that.

ChessMaster, thank you for starting this topic Applause . This is why I love wazua it challenges me!!

To my problem: I am trying to parse the faNtaSEy > 2011 Experts Leaderboard table at faNtaSEy > 2011 LeaderBoard. Since the table is paginated the crawler can't get past the 1st page. ideas on how to go about it.

Also welcome, are interesting ideas on what to do when I get the data.

Thank you.Let me look at it and I'll get back to you.The data I focus on is the trades.I focus on who is buying,what they are buying and how fast they sell.This is so I can see who has good timing and consistent in trading.I also check the quantity bought and the quantity traded during the day to see if the trade would have been possible in the market.

I suggest you download a software called fiddler.It can help decipher web requests with the help of Mozilla


I've tried posting the whole request but it doesn't fit the number of allowed characters!Its that big.Get fiddler so you can see for yourself.The first few lines you will see something like
Quote:
__EVENTTARGET=ctl00%24ContentPlaceHolder1%24grvFantasy&__EVENTARGUMENT=Page%244

This is for page 3
Quote:
__EVENTTARGET=ctl00%24ContentPlaceHolder1%24grvFantasy&__EVENTARGUMENT=Page%243


The difference is the last 2,3,4 which are the pages of the Experts challenge.What you do is let the crawler scan the first page so it can get the number of total pages.From there when requesting the rest of the pages configure the crawler to use a POST request which will use an iteration to change that specific digit.I haven't done it but have used the same method for other things.Try it and tell me how it works.
