parse_index() question

mr.w0lf · 10-10-2013, 06:07 PM

Hi, I am using parse_index to build my recipe, problem is that site where i getting everything gives out not a valid HTML page, instead just the content of the article i want to read (so no html/head/body tag, just the tags included in the article).

Calibre is working nice, except that gives me back a file with no content inside.. maybe is because of the strange situation i have described? solutions? do i have to do something like putting an article template before write the temp file (see spoiler)?

Spoiler:

You can implement get_obfuscated_article() in your recipe to do that.
