but it can’t
I tried 2>&1|cat > templog
still not OK

you can copy the content and make a wget.sh file and then run it
you will notice that the content can not be redirected to templog,

how to deal with this to achieve my target?
thanks

keyword=pig

wget -O search_result http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=${keyword}&page=${page_nr} > templog

Answer 1

You just need to put quotes around your url. wget then is using the stderr to print on screen, so you also have to the stderr instead of the stdout (using 2> instead of >):

keyword=pig
page_nr=3
wget -O search_result "http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=${keyword}&page=${page_nr}" 2> templog
