I would like to extract data form a spacific url such as http://www.example.com/data.php?id=xx

Where xx is a number between 1 and 1000 (ie. the script should loop through) and extract the data so far I have the following script:

VERSION BUILD=7401110 RECORDER=FX TAB 
T=1 
SET !LOOP 1 
URL GOTO=http://www.example/data.php?id={{!LOOP}} 
TAG POS=2 TYPE=TD ATTR=TXT:* EXTRACT=TXT

Now how can I achieve this to loop properly also if a url eg http://www.example.com/data.php?id=4
does not exist no data is extracted but the script continues and finally how can I get the data to be outputted to a file?

Thanks

    With the macro you wrote, if you use the Loop function (that is, hit the play loop button) the macro is going to load one url after the other and extract the desired data.

    However, the data is not going to be saved, but presented to you in a popup at each step. To avoid that, include the command 

    SET !EXTRACT_TEST_POPUP NO

    at the beginning. For the saving, use SAVEAS TYPE=EXTRACT
