How do I scrape tables? I really need help. This is due soon
How do I scrape tables off of websites? Also, I have to get the table from the Transaction History of this website. http://portal.uspto.gov/external/portal/pair
However, there doesn't seem to be a direct url to the transaction history tab. How does the url change? Please look into this. Thanks so much!
Here are some sample application numbers that you can search:
06/622,222
06/519,444
06/472,481
06/645,533

More problems with the uspto site
Actually, I don't even know where to begin to figure out those "cryptic strings." Can someone please walk me through this? Some hints would help too. I know very little about scraping.
Where does it say how to scrape tables in the tutorial?
I've looked through and done the 3 tutorials. Neither say anything about scraping a table. And what is a GET url?

Razzlyrelic,
I would direct you to the tutorials we provide starting here.

The patent site you're interested in scraping may present a moderate challenge with their more extensive use of session validation between pages. However, they seem to be using straightforward HTTP transactions.
You may need to be extra careful to capture and then properly pass the cryptic strings they're inserting in the GET request / querystrings.
Be sure to start off by using the screen-scraper proxy server to record the pages you're interested in and use the proxy server results to build your scraping session.
If you have specific questions please let us know.
