Using scraper to grab HTML

Vote 0 Votes

Is there an easy way to get the scraper to grab HTML and leave it as HTML, rather than HTML encode it all?

For the MT.org Action stream I've just made, I want to grab the exact contents of the li (with all links) and just output it as is. However if I use TEXT in the scraper i just get text and if I use HTML the stream displays this:

Richard <a href="http://forums.movabletype.org/2008/08/as-docs----mayday-mayday.html#comment-6679"> Answered AS Docs -- Mayday! Mayday! </a> on MT.org

Or do i need to do a callback?

  • It'd probably be a lot easier with a callback. That's what I've had to do with Slashdot and Reddit because those sites have some of the most horrific HTML I've ever seen.
