Hi SweetNFunny. I wanted to ask what are other advanced parameters available in page scanner footprints other then %and% ? I read description on your website and watched @loopline 's video on how to use it. Didn't find the answer. Happy Holidays!
Sorry for the late reply @bennyb i didn't get a notification there was a new post.
You can use %and% as well as putting another footprint on the next like acts just like OR.
Plus you can also use regex for advanced matching.
You can add regex patterns from https://www.regexlib.com/Search.aspx?k=credit&c=-1&m=-1&ps=20 as these are all compatible with ScrapeBox's regex ability.
If the regex starts with ^ and ends with $ on that site then those 2 characters just need to be removed from the regex before adding it to ScrapeBox.
Any regex should have the leading ^ and ending $ removed because this means match the start and end of the line, however when scraping anything from HTML the data isn't going to sit perfectly on the start and end of a line of source code there's going to be other HTML and content before and after the data being scraped.
So for example using:
regex:\d{4}-?\d{4}-?\d{4}-?\d{4}
The Page Scanner will report if the page contains credit card numbers in the format of 1234-1234-1234-1234 or 1234123412341234
Happy Holidays to you also bennyb!
