Hello,
I am attempting to extract a particular piece of data from a webpage. I was not able to use a webquery because the data can only be reached by searching an online database and the URL remains static throughout this process.
The data of interest is contained in a simple, 2-column table with item descriptions in the first column and item values in the second.
I have attempted to search through the innertext of the items on the page of interest which have a tag name "table". This hasn't worked.
Unfortunately, I couldn't post my code here, because I am a new user and the forum witll not allow me to include links in my post. Please refer to the crosspost cited above for the full code and question. I sincerely apologize for this inconvenience. Once I am allowed to include links I will update this post. I promise.
