Try adding the following to your script

Code:

/^<!DOCTYPE/    {printf RS
                }
END             {printf RS
                }
' IDS="price|condition|date_updated|in_stock" ORS=","

Please be aware that any comma INSIDE fields will lead to misinterpretation if the result is read somewhere else based on comma separated fields.

Hey RubiC!

Thanks a lot for your followup! I'm sorry but I think that you're too advanced for me... Smilie

I have no idea on how to combine bash commands with HTML and where to insert the new code into my script. Smilie

For now I have that:

Code:

curl -s "https://www.dotmed.com/equipment/2/92/1209/all/offset/0/all?key=&limit=20&price_sort=descending&cond=all&continent_filter=0&zip=&distance=5&att_1=0&att_row_num=1&additionalkeywords=&country=ES" | 
awk '
/href.*view more/ {sub (/^[^<]*<a href="/, "curl -s https://www.dotmed.com")
                         sub (/">.*$/, "")
                         print} ' | 
sh | 
awk ' match ($0, "id=\"(" IDS ")\"")  ||
 /<\/*title>/    {gsub (/<[^>]*>/, _)
                  print >> "/Users/MyUser/Desktop/test.txt"
                 } ' IDS="price|condition|date_updated"

I tried already to replace the portion:

Code:

/<\/*title>/    {gsub (/<[^>]*>/, _)
                  print >> "/Users/MyUser/Desktop/test.txt"
                 } ' IDS="price|condition|date_updated"

with your new code:

Code:

/^<!DOCTYPE/    {printf RS
                 }
END             {printf RS
                 } ' IDS="price|condition|date_updated|in_stock" ORS=","

But it yielded a blanc "page" on my terminal. Smilie

Plus I'm not sure at all on how to export to a file?
Again, I'm truly sorry to be such a burden and would totally understand if you weren't able to help me further! Smilie

Oh! And one last thing: Having a coma is perfect, I'll try to deal with the "iner" comas afterwards. Using Excel, I can still fine tune that pretty easily I guess...

Thanks anyways and all the best,

Ardzii
