I have a company website, to which i log in to get my data, the webpage is a .PHP that has several drop down menus for example Data 1, Data 2 , Data 3 etc, if you select Data1 for example, you get a sublist with more files,at the moment i choose a file from the sublist then i click a download CSV button. I have to do the same for over 100 subfiles. I am trying to find another way to achieve this.

I was wondering whether someone could have an idea of how i can achieve this in fme? Maybe download the mainfile instead of the subfiles.

 

Thanks,

Keller.

See if you can find out who's responsible for that webpage and ask them if they can give you direct url's for the files you need to download. Or check the page source and see if you can figure it out.

FME rocks! \m/
