this is a follow-up question of mine.
Suppose now I have a URL :
http://www.baidu.com/s?bs=%B0%C2%B0%CD%C2%ED&f=8&wd=%B0%C2%B0%CD%C2%ED
and it work perfectly by inputting it in the text field of google translate and select from "Chinese" to English.
My question is ,suppose now I want to achieve this in Java,
I would like to adopt Process q=Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd /c start +URL")
approach to do this.
Could I achieve that by simply concatenating the Google translate URL and the webpage URL?
You can use HttpClient to perform you http requests.
You can use this api google-api-translate

I need to get data from table id="maintable" from website "http://trackinn.az/GeoLoc/reports.aspx?login=ho&password=ho". I tried many methods some of them worked for other websites but not for this one. Could someone help pls?
Thanks.
You cannot get data from that table. It is being dynamically created by javascript (AJAX particularly). And I don't think there is any api wich can process javascript.
It would be possible to get data if it was a static file or the part you want would be static, but it is not.
If you are using this site to get geolocation, then use google geocoding api for this. it would be better option.
I am trying to parse a website, specifically this one It does not provide a api for that, like it does for bf4 or other titles, but the owner said that I should just parse the data.
The problem I have is that using jSoup, it retrieves the data, but if you look carefully, the website makes a new httpget and only after that the search is completed.
From what I could gather, i think it sends some paramethers in the header to.
If i just use jSoup to call that like I get some data, and where the search should be I get the message:
Please activate Javascript to see the search results.
Is there is a way to get the data? I really need this, any help is very much appreciated.
Please help
You need a javascript-capable client, e.g., HtmlUnit or Selenium.
I've been waiting for an idea and I think I finally have one. I am going to attempt to make a Android App using Web Scraping that will allow me to navigate and use the forums on Roblox (.com if you really want to look it up) better than I can now. Not only are the forums pretty bad in general but they are even worse on my Android Device (Samsung Galaxy Player). Can anyone give me an pointers or advice? I'm not sure what libraries I should use... This is my first big attempt at coding :)
Oh, Obviously I would want to give it a feature to reply to posts but I'm not sure how login for that type of thing would work...
EDIT: I got the idea from this application: GooglePlay, Github
You should look up how to get the data from the website, and you should also make sure that you understand html. You also need a simple way to handle html.
Get the page (use the example in the question): Read data from webpage
A bit about html: http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp
Handle html: http://jsoup.org/cookbook/extracting-data/dom-navigation
To login you should do a post request with the login information to the standard login page, then you keep the cookie that were generated and pass it with your other requests.
Little about handle cookies: Java: Handling cookies when logging in with POST
Some things you also might want to think about:
Linear or branched view of posts in the forum?
Should you get a message if someone post a new post?
A own search function?
Signature?
You have to use JSOUP libaray of java ,you can easily parse the html data through this library. Example: In doc object you are getting complete web page
File input = new File(url);
Document doc = null;
doc = Jsoup.connect(url).get();
Elements headlinesCat1 = doc.select("div[class=abc");
Im trying to make a simple webpage which obtains football league table data
http://www.skysports.com/football/league/0,19540,11660,00.html
For example i want to read in the points column and divide it by the number of games played to get an average points per game column that i will print onto my webpage.
How can i do this online?
Im quite experienced at doing this with offline programmes such as C/Matlab but i dont know where to start with it online.
Thanks
I wouldn't suggest to do it client side (on browser). It will be easier to scrap on server side (using java for example) following the steps:
Grab the content of the webpage (skysports)
Use existing html markup with regex to locate the desired content part.
Strip/split html markup with regex to get records (tr) and fields (td).
Cast values and do your math.
Use results to generate your version of html or json or whatever.
Serve the generated content to your client.
In general scrapping is easy but not guaranteed for tomorrow as source html markup may change at any time (and without warning).
I can provide a basic sample in C# if you want. (Sorry I haven't "java" since 1997).
You use jQuery.get like this:
$.get('http://www.skysports.com/football/league/0,19540,11660,00.html', function(data) {
//do the parsing here
});
There are several programing languages capable of getting at this information, PHP would be the classic method using curl or file_get_contents and regex parsing to extract the bits you want. You could do it with Yahoo Pipes as well if your web host does not allow remote URL retrieval.
If none of the Java brigade come back with something better contact me and I'll do some rough code for you in PHP.
I am writing a java code.
I want to search a string on google and google images using my java code.
Previously i wasnt even able to search text and then i had to register with google and then i could do it.
Now i want to search a string against googleimages
How can i do it?

It's pretty similar to text search, you just need to specify the URL as
http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/images
Standard arguments are described here, image -specific ones are here.
I agree with ChssPly76, but you have to include version number in URL as following
http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/images?v=1.0&q=
put q= watever you want to search for.
I hope it will help you.
Cheers.
