Hi
I am new to skrape.it and try to extract content of a table.
Is there a way to process every table by it self, so I get a List with all texts of a row in a List with all rows? e.g.: List<List<String>>

One row looks like this:

<tr role="row">
    <td class="grad" style="background:#067A25; width:50px">
        <div class="grad_outer">
            <span>4c</span>
        </div>
    </td>
    <td class="name">
        King Louie
    </td>
    <td>
        Dave
    </td>
    <td>
        11.03.2022
    </td>
    <td>
        12
    </td>
    <td>
        64.2
    </td>
</tr>

I also need to extract the background css attribute. How can I do this?

Hey,
I will provide a little example snippet later this evening.
It is definitely possibly :)

Thanks, that would be great.

sorry for late response.

i hope i got it correct.

assuming a html contaning a table like this:

<div>
            <table>
                <tr>
                    <td>
                        <div>
                            <span>AAA</span>
                        </div>
                    </td>
                    <td class="name">
                        BBB
                    </td>
                    <td>
                        01.01.1970
                    </td>
                    <td>
                        42
                    </td>
                </tr>
                <tr>
                    <td>
                        <div>
                            <span>YYY</span>
                        </div>
                    </td>
                    <td class="name">
                        ZZZ
                    </td>
                    <td>
                        08.08.2022
                    </td>
                    <td>
                        4711
                    </td>
                </tr>
            </table>
        </div>

you want to have a list of every row. a row should be presented by a list of strings.

i would probably come up with something like this:

...
htmlDocument(someHtmlSnippet) {
            tr {
                findAll {
                    map { <http://it.td|it.td> {
                            findAll { eachText }
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
...

it would return
[[AAA, BBB, 01.01.1970, 42], [YYY, ZZZ, 08.08.2022, 4711]]

Thanks a lot, will try at the evening.

I have tried it and this works just as it should.
I forgot to use <http://it.td|it.td> { ... } and only did td { ... } inside the map . This way it gave me a List<String> instead of a List<List<String>> .
Thanks a lot.
