Read HTML Table actions

Read HTML Table actions read the contents of an HTML table obtained from a web page, and store the results in a Table dataset.

Action property Description
HTML Table Index An Integer parameter or dataset specifying an index number for the HTML table to read. The first HTML table in a web page has the index 0.
Result A Table dataset that stores the contents of the HTML table.
URL A String parameter that stores the URL for the web page from which to read the HTML table.

The input parameters for a Read HTML Table action may be set using the Configure Table To Read Wizard, which allows you to specify a web page URL and then browse for the appropriate table. To start the Wizard, select Configure Table To Read from the action’s context menu. When the Wizard has finished, use the Property Editor to create a Result dataset that will store the contents of the HTML table.
