Im havin a problem with my code. I want to build a programm that finds all the pictures on an internetside i choose and downloads them. The first problem is to find 

the pictures. Thats what im trying to do here:

//this is the var for the string im putting in

this works really good for things like that:

wnuciwefncw...(()))888eiunwediuntrastrashtrashdasdad

but when I put in some sourcecode from a homepage I get this:

overflow:hidden}.f{color:#666}.flc: no such object

cursor:hand}.ta{padding:3px: no such object

#tpa3{padding-top:9px}#gbar{height:22px: no such object

font-size:1px}.gbh{height:0: no such object

z-index:1000}#gbi{border:1px: no such object

z-index:1001}#guser{padding-bottom:7px: no such object

vertical-align:top}#gbar{float:left}}.gb2{display:block: no such object

.gb3{text-decoration:none}a.gb2:hover{background:#36c: no such object

for some reason it tries to understand the string, I think.

Does anybody knows what im doing wrong here ?

Would it be possible that you would have some semi colon, and that you display that in a message box that you trigger? That's only a speculation though.

i found out that it also doesnt like whitespaces

it doesnt like semi colons

hmmmm...think think
but what can i do to avoid that ?


why not use regular expressions (ie the RegExp object) instead of having to roll your own text scanner?

You might find your life will be a lot easier if you use the shell and use wget, which has lots of convenient settings to filter filetypes. that's what I did for a similar project a few years ago.

hmm, i tried something with regexp.
but theres always the semi colon problem

The message box with the semi colon needs to be quoted or have the semi-colon escaped, which is hopefully what you'll get in the normal life using

hmm, when i press bang my max always crashes. 

its working for decimal and hex for me. but not with ascii.

the thing is, that i want to make this with max.

so what do you suggest is the best way ?

Hi.
I have this error : 
jit.str.regexp: PCRE error -10

Yeh I've come across that error before but the cause appears to be a mystery. One way of solving it that has worked for me is to open the [jit.textfile] after you have downloaded from [jit.uldl] and before you send it a bang. Using something like [t b wclose open] with all the outlets connected to the [jit.textfile] should do it. No idea why this seems to work though.

Here's my version of this fix with included dropfile for specifying where to save images.

Enjoy and thanks so much for the fix in the first place!
