Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Copy text of web page while following links
« on: June 05, 2006, 06:46 AM »
When reading an article on the web, you often have to click
Next >
Next >
Next > Next > Next > Next > Next >
Bleh.
I would love a macro which would copy all the text on a page, append it to a text file, and then click "next" for me. It would repeat copying/clicking until "next" is not found. Don't need the images, just the text.
Sometimes the link is "next page" sometimes "continue to page 2" etc. Perhaps the macro could prompt for the target text, or use the currently highlighted text.
Thanks!
