How do I add dates from a web page into iCal?

Hello. I would love to find a way to input dates from a web page, into iCal as an event. Right now, if there is a conference or whatever that is on such and such a date, I have to keep the web page open that has the dates and time, and then open iCal, and create a new event on that date, etc. Is there a way to highlight said dates on a web page, run some automation, and voila, it is a new event in iCal?

Don't double tap. Just try pressing on the text. That should highlight it.

  • Copying data from a web page into Numbers

    I frequently use a Keyword Density Analysis Tool on the web that displays three columns and perhaps 50 to 100 rows of data. There is no export or save to csv, so I just highlight the three columns, copy and paste into a blank Excel spreadsheet - and hey presto, I get three columns of data. that I can sort and analyse. When I do the same with Numbers I get three columns but all the data ends up in three rows - please see attached. Is there a simple way around this because I am trying to stop using Excel? Thanks./Volumes/garyloch/Public/Screenshots/Picture 2.png

    The only way I was able to reproduce what you described is to run the script after copying a picture.
    Here is a refined version.
    It make two attempts to grab text items from the clipboard.
    If both failed, it send an error message.
    --[SCRIPT table2text]
    Enregistrer le script en tant qu'Application ou Progiciel : table2text.app
    déplacer l'application créée dans le dossier
    <VolumeDeDémarrage>:Users:<votreCompte>:Library:Scripts:Applications:
    Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Applications.
    Copiez vos données dans le Presse-papiers.
    menu Scripts > table2text
    Le presse-papiers sera alimenté par le composant Text ou utf8 du contenu initial.
    +++++++
    Save the script as an Application or an Application Bundle: table2text.app
    Move the newly created application into the folder:
    <startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:
    Maybe you would have to create the folder Applications by yourself.
    Copy your block of datas to the Clipboard.
    menu Scripts > table2text
    The Clipboard will be filled with the text or the utf8 component of its original contents.

    In the cell A2 of Table B
    the formula is :
    =Table A :: $B2
    It may be :
    =Table A :: $B
    Apply Fill Down
    Copy paste it in cell A1 which is in a header row.
    This formula does its duty but it’s not robust enough and will not survive to a Sort.
    This is why in B2, I inserted a more robust formula :
    =OFFSET(Table A :: $A$1,ROW()-1,2)

  • How do I save documents from the new Pages into a Word Document

    How do I save documents from the new Pages into a Word Document?

    Thank you so much - so simple!  I had been using the 'share' option (worked in old Pages) and only had icloud or email as options.  I have to attach word documents to emails to send to work. I don't want to use icloud because it's too public and I don't trust it.  Also, you have to be able to access the internet and I need word documents on my USB stick for work where there's no internet.
    I love my Mac but I do wish Apple would remember those of us living in less-than-perfect computer-land.
    Thanks again

  • How do you read data from a text file into a JTextArea?

    I'm working on a blogging program and I need to add data from a text file named messages.txt into a JTextArea named messages. How do I go about doing this?

    Student_Coder wrote:
    1) Read the file messages.txt into a String
    2) Initialize messages with the String as the textSwing text components are designed to use Unix-style linefeeds (\n) as line separators. If the text file happens to use a different style, like DOS's carriage-return+linefeed (\r\n), it needs to be converted. The read() method does that, and it saves the info about the line separator style in the Document so the write() method can re-convert it.

  • Get xml data from a web service into Forms?

    Hello folks! I am reading active directory info from a web service into forms via imported java classes. I can read from functions that return strings just fine, but I have to get the output from getGroupUsers which returns an XmlDataDocument. How do I read this in and parse it in Forms?
    I will be grateful if y'all could point me to an example.
    Thank you,
    Gary
    P.S. Here is a snippet of how I get the full name by passing an ID:
    DECLARE
    jo ora_java.jobject;
    rv varchar2(100);
    BEGIN
    jo := ADSoapClient.new;
    rv := ADSoapClient.getUserName(jo, 'user_ID');
    :block3.fullname := rv;

    Hello,
    Since you are already dealing with server-side JAVA, I would suggest you create a method that would do the parsing server-side and what your PL/SQL will be dealing with is just the return string.
    Here is a method I use to read an XML file (actually, it is an Oracle Reports file converted to XML) and from the string version, I will do search, replace and other things.
    So, from getGroupUsers which returns an XmlDataDocument, you can adapt this method to get your data server-side and let the form module read the output data.
    <blockquote>
    private String processFileXml(String fileName, int iFile) throws ParserConfigurationException, SAXException,
    IOException, XPathExpressionException{
    try{                
    DocumentBuilderFactory domFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
    domFactory.setNamespaceAware(true);
    InputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream(new File(fileName));
    DocumentBuilder builder = domFactory.newDocumentBuilder();
    Document doc = builder.parse(inputStream);
    StringWriter stw = new StringWriter();
    Transformer serializer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();
    serializer.transform(new DOMSource(doc), new StreamResult(stw));
    return stw.toString();
    catch (Exception e){
    System.err.println(e);
    System.exit(0);
    return "OK";

  • How to do import data from the text file into the mathscript window?

    Could anyone tell me how to do import data from text file into mathscript window for labview 8?
    MathScript Window openned, File, Load Data - it has options: custom pattern (*.mlv) or all files. 
    Thanks

    Hi Milan,
    Prior to loading data in Mathscript Window , you have to save the data from the Mathscript window (the default extension of the file is .mlv but you can choose any extension). This means that you cannot load data from a text file  that was not created using the Mathscript window.
    Please let me know if you have any further questions regarding this issue.

    Now I want to import the data from these csv files into the tables on second machine. if I've 50 such csv files, then data should be written to 50 tables.
    I am new to this. Could anyone please let me know how can I import data back into tables. i can't use sqlloader as I've to satisfy a few conditions while loading the data into tables. I am stuck and not able to proceed.
    Please let me know how can I do this.

  • How get data from another web page?

    I have my own interface..after i key In a keyword and click search, method post will post the data to server and server will response.write a HTML page that display the result based on the keyword i Key In. The problem is i want the result display on my own page. So how can i read the search result from the HTML page and display on my own design page? I use JSP to built my page. thanks

    I dont know the following solution would solve ur problem, atleast u will get basic idea.
    1st method
    Create an inline frame (IE-IFrame etc), On pressing submit button, Post the data to required page (it might be some page on another server)and specify post target is ur inline frame.
    if u want filter the result data and want to display in ur own way then send ur POST request to ur own JSP and use Http classes to read resend those data to other page (another server) and capture the results implement ur own logic to get desired data and resend to the requested browser
    I hope it would solve ur problem
    Cheers
