How can I extract information from a web page
I wanna read some information from a webpage, and then put those information together into a table. Since I only know the url, not the file path, when I use BufferedReader(new FileReader(FilePath)), there is a FileNotFoundException. How can I do that? Thanks a lot.
You can do it in following way....
First you need to create the object of URL by specifying the URL name.
URL myurl = new URL("http://www.xyz.com/index.html"); //specify your URL path here
URLConnection conn = null;
DataInputStream data = null;
String line;
StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer();
try {
conn = myurl.openConnection();
conn.connect();
data = new DataInputStream(new BufferedInputStream(
conn.getInputStream()));
while ((line = data.readLine()) != null) {
buf.append(line + "\n");
data.close();
catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("IO Error:" + e.getMessage());
So, at the end, you have the data in your string buffer...you can use it wherever u want.
Hope this helps

How can I extract information from an IdM approval stack?
During the workflow for provisioning employees, managers are required to authorize certain actions. The problem is that they sometimes do not.
My boss has asked for a formatted report in ascending date order that shows the passive authorizations (some are weeks old!) and the managers to whom the "lazy" managers report.
I've done this, but it's driven by my manually screen-scraping the information from the approval list onto an external file.
The problem is that I have to initiate the process by bringing up the approval screen, copying and pasting information into a file and then running a Perl munge script against the created file...
I want to be able to acccess the approvals list by means of a crontab initiated script and not have to rely on the "screen-scrape."
Any ideas?

How can you copy information from Safari into Pages
Is there a way to easily copy data, such as financial tables from Safari into Pages and maintain the integrity of the table and the data within it? When I copy and paste it comes out all misaligned and into multiple pages. The same thing happens if I try to highlight the table in Safari and drag it into Pages. Is there not a "paste special" function in Pages like there is in Microsoft??
See:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5775
You can then drag the resulting image into a Pages document, and position.

How can I transfer information from one ipad to another?
how can I transfer information from one ipad to another ?
What kind of information? You can sync things like Contacts and Calendars by using iCloud. You can backup one iPad to iTunes on a computer and then sync the backup to the other iPad. You can configure your iTunes content and sync the same content to both iPads.
It is based on what you want to do. Or are you looking for a way to send files from one iPad to another wirelessly? There are apps to do things like that, as well as cloud services, such as DropBox. -

You cannot.
Why are you opposed to paying for some software to help do what you want?
You can restore the backup to your iPhone then sync the photos to your computer. -

Extracting info from a web page
Hi,
I m not sure if i m asking this question at the right forum.
Can anyone tell me if there is a way to extract data from a web page.
This means, say for example a web site Yahoo displays stock quotes
updated or NASDAQ values almost in real time.
Now if i want to get that information from the web page into one
of my applications ,say, something that uses that data. Is there
a way to do it?
Just curiousYes, it's possible. You can use the java.net.URL object to connect to websites and download the html. Doing the coding is not that easy, and you should also be mindful of not redistributing data you've gotten from another site without permission
