Pulling my hair out..text parsing

November 24, 201213 yr

I am pretty new to Filemaker,and maybe trying to bite off more than I can chew...story of my ilfe..

I have used the GetUrl script and pasted html data into a field called "url_g". In this HTML I am attempting to get some data out of 4 tables and put them in their respective fields.

I have tried numerous scripts to accomplish this, and am really struggling. A sample of the HTML code is below:

Every number in this code needs to be placed in a particular field. To start I was simply trying to parse this text to a separate field so I could attempt to parse each number.

Now, I am here begging for help. Is this even possible? I watched a video of a somebody doing it, but he made assumptions I did not understand. I have googled "parse data" and most of the examples are very simple.

What I have tried is to Set a variable at word "ysprow1" and "ysprow2" (the beginning of the next table). I then attempted set a variable using the Middle function. I ran the script and it crashed FM.

Here is a copy of the script I was using last

#Parse the Tables out of the Code

#First Table
Loop

Go to Record/Request/Page[ First ]

Set Variable [ $t1beg; Value:Position ( NBA Players::url_g; "ysprowl1" ; 1 ; 1 ) ]

Set Variable [ $t1end; Value:Position ( NBA Players::url_g; "ysprowl2" ; 1 ; 1 ) ]

Set Variable [ $table1; Value:Middle ( NBA Players::url_g; $t1beg ; $1tend-$t1beg ) ]

Set Field [ NBA Players::url_l_table_1; $table1 ]

Go to Record/Request/Page

[ Next; Exit after last ]

End Loop

I know this is the part where experienced FM designers are laughing..I deserve it Any help would greatly be appreciated..
