Hi, Thank's for this video! For me, in a dynamic sites, using selenium for a get page source, don't work ! Still responding in javascript tag's. The path of the server request and response is: browser request -> server response -> javascript response -> api response -> browser ? Thank's
Thank you for the feedback. It’s difficult to say without seeing the code, but have you tried using different web drivers? The situation might change if you add some actions to the page. Also, it might be handy for you to check the code in textual form: oxylabs.io/blog/dynamic-web-scraping-python.
Hello! Thank you for asking :) If there is a src= attribute, then you need to get the file content by doing additional request to the url defined in src= attribute. source = soup.find("script") link_to_file = source["src"]
Hello. We’re glad you enjoyed it! The h3 > a syntax just tells Beautiful Soup to get a tags that are directly beneath h3. You can try going to the link displayed in the video (librivox.org/search/?q=time%20machine&search_form=advanced), right-click on any book title and select “inspect”. This should open the exact place where you can see that a is bellow h3. Have fun!
Excellent video. Quick question - when I click Ctrl+U on the website, my source page looks different. I don't have anywhere and I have separating each section. Does this matter or was "script" just used to locate the data needed?
Hello! If you're unable to locate in the source page of the website, do make sure that you visited "quotes.toscrape.com/js" (adding the `/js` at the end of the URL). This was important to ensure that you can follow the script parsing portion of the guide, as we then extracted information found in the tag. You can see the differences when comparing the source codes of "quotes.toscrape.com/js/" vs "quotes.toscrape.com"
Hey. That's a path to a chromedriver executable. Your question is hard to answer since we don't know what kind of error you are getting. If it's a File Not Found error, you would need to make sure that the path leading to the chromedriver is correct - try to use a full path instead of a relative one if it is failing for you. Also, if you're running on Windows OS, the chromedriver should have an .exe at the end. Hope this helps!
Hi, it was very good. Thanks. But I'm facing a problem: at the line 13, it is reported to me that "NameError: name 'data' is not defined". Any idea how to fix it?
Hello! It seems that you’re trying to access a variable called data but it doesn't exist. Please double check the names for the variables you have defined. Also, there are couple of more scenarios when this error might get triggered - this article summarizes that quite well: www.geeksforgeeks.org/handling-nameerror-exception-in-python/
Hello, help me please, how to get the text out "Wilson Tour Premier All Court 4B" soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml') title = soup.find('h1', class_='product--title') Tennis balls Wilson Tour Premier All Court 4B
Hey, thanks for asking! There are a couple of ways (without modifying your find function) 1.Retrieve a list of tag's children and select last one on the list. Strip the white space afterwards: title.contents[-1].strip() 2. Retrieve the whole text of a title, split it by a double space and select last string on the list: title.text.split(" ")[-1]
The presented method works on any and all types of web pages, both static and dynamic. As a page containing the reCaptcha is a type of a dynamic page, you can read, extract and manipulate data that is present on the page. :) Hope this helps you!
Hey! It defines a regular expression to match certain combinations of characters within a document. This one specifically is looking for whatever text thats between var data = and a new line.

How to get the data when the tag source is not None instead there is a file mentioned
Hello! Thank you for asking :)
If there is a src= attribute, then you need to get the file content by doing additional request to the url defined in src= attribute.
source = soup.find("script")
link_to_file = source["src"]
Thanks for the video. Could you please explain where you took value 'h3 >a' for select at the end of the video?
Hello. We’re glad you enjoyed it!
The h3 > a syntax just tells Beautiful Soup to get a tags that are directly beneath h3.
You can try going to the link displayed in the video (librivox.org/search/?q=time%20machine&search_form=advanced), right-click on any book title and select “inspect”. This should open the exact place where you can see that a is bellow h3. Have fun!
why are you not using requests-html library? Seems to achieve the same in a simpler way
Good point, thanks for the feedback!

It was very useful. Thank you!
We're very glad to you liked it!
hi! I was not able to install the chrome driver, do you have any suggestion?
Hi! Could you specify why you couldn't install the driver? Was there an error message of any sorts?

Is that pathing to the folder with chromedriver or the chromedriver.exe? Either way mine wont work

This method is impossible if the script have src especially reCaptcha right?
