Shell Programming and Scripting

I'm trying to reconstruct the google ads as they get displayed in script tags in a html page and place them in a wget command.

Anyone tried that before?

Thank you

It's not clear what you mean by "place them in a wget command". You can use wget to retrieve the html, then you could use awk or perl to parse the output and reorder the page.

sorry for my late reply!

Yes, I can use wget to retrieve the html page as long as I know what kind of html page I have to call! That's exactly my problem. To construct from the google quoted script parameters, the right html I can call.

How these parameters get translated in a URL. That's my problem.

Thank you

You can't get Google Adsense on a site which is not configured as the "owner" of the tags which serve the ads. Each AD tag is specific to an account that has verified web sites; so you can't just grab that HTML and get the display ads to show up, even if you get the script.

here is a random example I picked fro the web. Having the code below:

Code:

google_ad_client = "ca-pub-9231705264853904";
google_ad_slot = "3239500158";
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
region = 'test';
<script type="text/javascript" src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">

Isn't possible to determine which ad the page will call? This 'show_ads.js' translates this parameters to a URL - or not?

I don't really understand the following:

------------
Each AD tag is specific to an account that has verified web sites
------------

you mean that Google checks the IP where the referrer comes from in order to construct the URL ad page?

If I could get just the domain of the ad, it would be more than enough. I don't really need the exact URL of the ad. It would be nice to have it but the domain will also do the trick.

Thank you
