Hi I like your previous video though I didnt quite understand how you get the movies from IMDb. But am working on a website for movies and also TV series, so is their any way you can show me how to also add TV series files from IMDb and how it works,like am I to register in IMDb or what please
great vid...what about websites with user authentication and load the data from react js?? I have the log in portion but I can load the element data because it is delivered from react
How did you know that they uses php ? IMDb.com they could use c# cus when you load HTML file it doesn’t load backend script with it . Do you find it out with try and error, Or they said that they use php in their website?
Found a couple of issues first is the url needs to be https instead of http, the pagination has changed it now gives 50 results and a second page starts at 51 I made a variable pageblock and then incremented it in the for loop by 50 so 1, 51, 101 not quite perfect but the strange thing is the array is reversed. page 3 is 0-49 page2 50-100 and page 1 is 100 to 150; kind of expected it to fill page1, 2,3, but this is reversed.
Great tutorial, In the regular expression used to collect the titles, at 2:37, you have " '!(.*?)!' " what is the reason for the first '?' That is, why do you start with '!
.*? is non-greedy meaning it will stop when it will encounter the first character which is placed right after it, in this case a double quote. .* is greedy and will go on matching absolutely ANYTHING (spaces, line breaks, ALL the content....) you unleash the cracken with it.
Could you explain what is the difference between starting with ! and starting with / when I use the regular expression functions of PHP? Because I used preg_match_all('/regular expression/',$result,$matcg) and it worked except the regular expression, '/Directors?: (.*?) /s',used for obtaining the names of directors. Thank you.
Daryl Zhang Think of the ! like quote in between you have your regex, and since you used ! as a barrier you have to escape exclamation mark in your regexp, without this the regexp parser will think your regex ends there. Example you cant do this somethink like this !.+?(.+?)!! you have to escape the \! before
I've never seen an attempt to parse XML using a regex that won't break on some content.The real trouble is nested tags.Nested tags are very difficult to handle with regular expressions.If you want to find a very specific pattern in a (ht|x)ml file, go on, regex is perfect for that.But if you are searching for something in in every Foo tag, that could have attributes in different orders, that can be nested, that can be malformed (and still valid), then use a parser, because thats not pattern matching anymore.
Hey Clever Techie, I went through your Regual Expression Tutorial and understood. Thanks a ton. I was confused before thinking where did you get those regular expression you created.. Your tutorials are simply great.
Brother can you please make a resume parser in Php? There is no resume parser in php....not available on internet and RUclips. I tried getting on github but nothing is working.. If u make then your video will be unique and most of them needs it. Please make it in php
he is not performing a get request. he is performing a curl request and storing what has returned.And it is returning the source code of the given url. you can watch his video on curl.
Thank you very much , but I am afraid you did it the wrong way , I think we have to us a HTML parsing library instead of regex , because regex cann't parse element by element , for example if a movie have no Gross nor Votes and this movie happened to be the last one of the current page (i .e : their is no next ) , how could we get this using the regex , if we us an Html parsing library we could walk movie by movie and parse all its info , any way I enjoyed the video thank you again :)

Shea Sollars Tried XPath? I am thinking going with regex too, since XPth is a nightmare in C# believe me, of course maybe there are better tools other tan HtmlAgilityPack, but lets say "hap" follows a strict path to an element and usually results the wrong elemnt altough the XPath is correct.

Do you find it out with try and error,
Or they said that they use php in their website?
Keep on doing stuff like this because it teaches newbies to write really stupid scrapers.
so .*? is a wildcard and in parenthesis is the wildcard you want to capture?

Do you ever scrape data from block JavaScript?
Do you have a solution & simple code?

No offense but do yourself a favor and use node for web scraping.
You can't parse [X]HTML with regex. Because HTML can't be parsed by regex. Regex is not a tool that can be used to correctly parse HTML..........
