Scraping Content

This is an example of a web URL that scrapes content from another URL (typically you would use this to pull back data from another site, but we have demonstrated it against another URL on our own server).

Here is the scraped content:

How do I find you?
We're in a big old Edwardian building five minutes walk from the town centre at Melksham, Wiltshire - about 100 miles to the West of London. There's a separate page that includes a map and directions - it also tells you about the trains and buses. We have a map showing a wider area too, and a .pdf download showing what's where in Melksham.

What time does the course start?
Usually at 09:30 on the first morning, and 08:45 each following day. We run (formally) to 17:15 each day, and finish around 16:15 on the final day. If you arrive early, please come on in anyway - there's always coffee and soft drinks available, and the day's paper to read. If you've brought your own laptop, arriving early also gives you an excellent opprotunity to set it up on our network.

Do I need to do anything before the course?
Not usually - just arrive fresh and ready to learn! But note: • If you'll be arriving in Melksham by train please let us know and we'll collect you from the station - there isn't a taxi rank or phone there.• If you have restrictions as to what you eat please tell us ahead of time or we might not be able to provide an appropriate lunch on the first day. • Do you have an operating system preference for your training machine? Alert us ahead of time, and we can reserve you a machine running Microsoft Windows, Apple OS X or Linux.

What should I bring with me??
All you need is yourself - we provide the rest - but consider • If you bring some sample data for your application and/or code you'll be taking over, the tutor can review the code with you and set practicals which are very much in tune with what you'll actually be doing. • Give some thought to applications you'll be writing / work you'll be doing, and bring those thoughts and supporting material - again, that helps us make the course more relevant to you. • You are very welcome to use your own laptop during the course - either in place of or in addition to the one we'll provide for you.

Where can I stay locally?
We have an accommodation list available on request - better though to look online these days for what you need. There is a wide range available locally, much of it many steps forward from what was available even a few years ago. Ask is you would like suggestions.

What's your dress code?
We're pretty informal, but we've included this paragraph here because we're asked from time to time. Typically, dress is "smart casual", but some employers ask their staff to dress more formally when they're meeting people as representatives of their organisation.

Are there local gym facilities?
Just because you're out of town on a training course, doesn't mean you have to put your lifestyle on hold. We work closely in conjunction with Melksham Blue Pool to be able to offer sports leisure facilities before or after your training day with us. From swimming laps to jogging on treadmills and lifting weights, bring your bathing suit and/or workout clothes and ask us for further details.
