Should TD be HTMLTableCell?
I am trying to pull data from a webpage, but the number of tables changes
from time to time. I have found that the table is nested in a cell (< T D tag) and this cell has a classname so i can work my way through all the TD's in the document until i get to the appropriate one... Then how do i get to the table within that TD? If i have Dim TDCell as HTMLTableCell 'and find the appropriate cell using If TDCell.className = "leftmenu_cel" Then I can't use for each oTable in TDCell otherwise an error comes up so should TDCell be something other than HTMLTableCell or can someone advise me on how to extract the table data from here? I've checked that the table doesn't have any unique classname - that would be too easy thanks George |

If the table is nested in a td then you should be able to get at it using
TDCell.getElementsByTagName("TABLE") or something like that. This will return a collection of any tables contained in the td. If there's only one then it will be TDCell.getElementsByTagName("TABLE")(0) Tim "George J" wrote in message ...
