Folks
Good idea's on doing the report in Word
I did find another option and that is using Wget
You may not have it installed on a Windows machine by default.
https://eternallybored.org/misc/wget/Then a simple batch file to download the Walk Blogs
Change emjga to your username
- Code: Select all
@echo off
REM Use wget to get the main index page with the walk blogs
C:\Users\uosa\Desktop\wget_test\wget.exe https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/blogs/emjga
REM The Wget index page ëmjga" has string "viewtopic"
REM It has delinator = at token 4
REM This gives viewtopic ID number plus some other text
REM Saves in a file called tmpfile
for /f "tokens=4 delims==" %%a in ('"type emjga|findstr viewtopic" ') do echo %%a >> tmpfile
REM Takes the tmpfile and delinator & at token 1
REM Then echo out the http url to file viewtopic_url
for /f "tokens=1 delims=&" %%a in ('"type tmpfile" ') do echo https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=9^&t=%%a >> viewtopic_url
REM delete the tmpfile
del tmpfile
REM Now dump the Walk Blogs but keep the .html so you can open with your browser
REM take the URL from the file viewtopic_url
REM -E adds .html
REM -nc No Clobber if the file exists all ready
C:\Users\uosa\Desktop\wget_test\wget.exe -i viewtopic_url -E -nc
REM Now tidy up
del emjga
del viewtopic_url
You then have a load of HTML files which you can open with your browser
For some reason there is a whole load of stuff at the start of the HTML file
At the end you should find your walk report.
It is a crude way of doing it but seems to work for me at least.
