how to give dynamic host url in config ...

[Antony raj]

Hi folks

<config charset="UTF-8"></config>

<var-def name="startUrl">http://news.bbc.co.uk</var-
def></var-def>

<var-def name="urlList"></var-def>

<xpath expression="//img/@src"></xpath>

<html-to-xml></html-to-xml>

<http url="startUrl/"></http>

<loop filter="unique" item="link" maxloops="10" index="i"></loop>

<list></list>

<file action="write" path="images/${i}.gif" type="binary"></file>

<http url="${sys.fullUrl(startUrl, link)}"></http>

in the above config file we have one start url . but i want to give 10 start
url is it possible

Do something like:

<config charset="UTF-8"></config>

<var-def name="startUrl"></var-def>

<loop item="url"></loop>

<list></list>

<xpath expression="data(//url)"></xpath>

<empty></empty>

<var-def name="urlList"></var-def>

<xpath expression="//img/@src"></xpath>

<html-to-xml></html-to-xml>

<http url="${url}"></http>

<loop filter="unique" item="link" maxloops="10" index="i"></loop>

<list></list>

<file action="write" path="images/${i}.gif" type="binary"></file>

<http url="${link}"></http>

{data($fulladdress)}

]]>

i want to split this.

you probably want to take a look at 'tokenize' xpath function.

Re 1st question - there is absolutely no need of CDATA or Xpath in this case
:)

The following straightforward way works:

<def var="urls">
    url1
    url2
    url3
</def>
<loop ....>
    <list>
        <get var="urls"/>
    </list>
</loop>

Re 2nd question - yes, XPath tokenize would do.
