Right modules to use ?

[Fre3k]

there is no problem to parse this page

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
url = 'https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=56261'

resp = requests.get(url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(resp.text, 'html.parser')
file_info = soup.find('div', {'class':'fileinfo'})
for p in file_info.find_all('p'):
    print(p.text)

Output:

Now, you need to refine it, because there are plenty of nested divs... I leave this to you

Thanks !
Hmm that's weird when I tried it ( searched for the the first div id instead of the class it didnt work. Seems like i messed that badly up haha :D ) . Didnt knew that bs get the dom from dropdowns aswell.
Paquettg (PHP) wasn't able to do so.

Many thanks for the reply.
date and version are now easy to extract.

I changed from PHP to Python some weeks ago, and Im totally into web-scraping.
Take a look at.
Web-Scraping part-1
Web-Scraping part-2

Thanks ! I went through it in the past 2 hours.
Seems like its not possible to manipulate ( check/uncheck) checkboxes without selenium.

But as long as I can run Selenium in headless mode it shouldnt affect the runtime as badly as when a new brwoser popsup ...

I used selenium in past that way. And this was simply painful when the script opens a brwoser and moves the mouse automatically ..

Thanks for the great help guys !
Both +rep'ed

Have a nice weekend
