Getting Value from Website source code.
Hi guys this is my first time posting on this forum.
So yeah i just started taking a computer science major in college and I have a question.
Is it possible to get a value from a webpages source code and assign it to a variable in my program?
The website i want to get the value from is here. It's the price of the item. In the source code of the webpage it is located on the line 243.
<b>Current guide price:</b> 1,268
Thanks and i'm looking forward to your help
