Data from Field

Syntax: REX expression, Replace expression, field to search, where to store it

This provides alternate means of setting both the HTML fields (Modify Date, Title, Description) and any Additional Fields. It allows getting page information from non-default places by searching and optionally replacing the data. New blank rows will be provided as rows are used. See below for examples.

REX Search - Allows you to specify a REX expression to narrow down what contents of the From Field will be used. Leave it empty to use the entire field.

Note that a REX Search must be specified for the following From field types:

• HTML

• Text

Replace - Replace can be used to specify a subset of the value to be stored in the To field (or subset of the match, if you're using REX Search. It uses sandr replacement string syntax.

From Field - specifies what the source field is for the data.

• HTML - the raw HTML source of the page.

• Text - the text of the page, after HTML rendering has been applied.

• Title - the HTML title of the page

• All Meta - the contents of all meta headers specified in the HTML page.

• Meta Field-> - the contents of a specific meta field, specified in the next input box, From Meta Field.

• Keywords - the contents of the keywords meta header.

• Description - the contents of the description meta header.

• Mime Type the MIME type of the page. This may have been derived from the Content-Type header, a <META HTTP-EQUIV> tag, or the URL extension, depending on what is available.

• URL - the URL of the page.

From Meta Field - If you're using Meta Field-> as your source, this field is used to specify which meta field's contents you want to use as your source. If you're not using Meta Field->, leave this field blank.

Entering text in this field will force the use of Meta Field->, regardless of From Field's settings.

To Field - specifies where information should be stored. Modified Date, Title, and `verb`Description` are the standard HTML fields. If you've defined any Additional Fields, they will also be listed as selections here.
