Hey there RudiC!

This is indeed a great step! So now I can get the make, model and price from the search directly. But you're right:
Quote:
While we can start a nice ping pong conversation about every single detail needed and how to get at it, I firmly believe it were better if you took a step back and rephrase the specification, giving the framework of what you really want, in which shape, where and how to get it, and ideas about what to do to connect the input data with the output. We then can help to implement and/or improve that.
To take a step back then: my objective is to get for each type of medical equipment within the website:
  • The make and model (which apparently appear in the http link)
  • the Asking price (if available)
but also some information that is detailed once we get into each listing:
  • Year of manufacture
  • Country
  • Publication date
  • Availability (if available)
  • Condition

And send all this information to a CSV or any kind of database file (even spreadsheet).

All the best!

Ardzii

irsend - basic LIRC program to send infra-red commands SYNOPSIS
irsend [options] DIRECTIVE REMOTE CODE [CODE...] DESCRIPTION
Asks the lircd daemon to send one or more CIR (Consumer Infra-Red) commands. This is intended for remote control of electronic devices such as TV boxes, HiFi sets, etc. DIRECTIVE can be: SEND_ONCE - send CODE [CODE ...] once SEND_START - start repeating CODE SEND_STOP - stop repeating CODE LIST - list configured remote items SET_TRANSMITTERS - set transmitters NUM [NUM ...] SIMULATE - simulate IR event REMOTE is the name of a remote, as described in the lircd configuration file. CODE is the name of a remote control key of REMOTE, as it appears in the lircd configuration file. NUM is the transmitter number of the hardware device. For the LIST DIRECTIVE, REMOTE and/or CODE can be empty: LIST "" "" - list all configured remote names LIST REMOTE "" - list all codes of REMOTE LIST REMOTE CODE - list only CODE of REMOTE The SIMULATE command only works if it has been explicitly enabled in lircd. -h --help display usage summary -v --version display version -d --device use given lircd socket [/var/run/lirc/lircd] -a --address=host[:port] connect to lircd at this address -# --count=n send command n times EXAMPLES
