[QUOTE="madmat17, post: 18961, member: 14207"] Hi all, I stopped writing the tvinfo.de-grabber. Everything works fine so far, but the descriptions. There are two different table structures used on the source page. Some descriptions contain a picture, which is embedded in a table within the cell which contains the description. [edit] The grabber can be downloaded here: [url]http://members.kabsi.at/mbux/www_tvinfo_de.zip[/url] All channels provided by tvinfo.de are contained in that grabber, but only channels with existing channel ID are active. All other channels are eliminated by "". As soon as I have created the new channel IDs, I'll update the grabber and post the link to the new channels.xml... Maybe someone else has a clue how to grab the program descriptions correctly. [/edit] Your kurier.at-grabber looks nice. One thing: special characters like ä, ö, ü and ß are not grabbed/saved correctly. The Logfile says, that the source page is iso-8859-1 coded; but the page doesn't use the iso-8859-1 character set (e.g. ä for "ä"). Maybe I find a "better written" site with Austrian tv program...
