Hello there hope you are well. Im using your fantastic actor however ive run into an issue how do i extract the "Whats in the Box" information (the part that is marked in red on the attached files) on this website https://www.takealot.com/bulk-pack-x-3-u-bolt-galvanised-40mm/PLID72399517

Hope to hear from you soon

Kind Regards

Hello and thank your for your interest in this Actor!

You seem to be running the Actor with the default input (except for the start URL). By default, the Actor only extracts and stores the page URL and title. To extract any more content from the page, you need to specify which elements you want to extract the content from. Take a look at our Cheerio Scraper tutorial on our blog to learn how to configure this Actor.

I'll close this issue now, but feel free to ask additional questions either here in the comments or in a new issue. Cheers!

Hello again! Unfortunately, using this Actor requires at least elementary knowledge of web applications (i.e. CSS selectors and a tiny bit of JS programming).

As I mentioned before, you should start by reading the tutorial on this Actor - and if you have any additional questions, you can always ask at the Apify & Crawlee Discord server. This is a community-oriented communication channel where you'll find beginners, experienced Apify users, and some of our developers as well.

Note that the Actor Issues tab here is primarily for reporting technical problems with the Actor.

I'll close this issue now - but always feel free to open another issue if you think something is not working as it should.

Cheers!

JSDOM Scraper

apify/jsdom-scraper

Parses the HTML using the JSDOM library, providing the same DOM API as browsers do (e.g. `window`). It is able to process client-side JavaScript without using a real browser. Performance-wise, it stands somewhere between the Cheerio Scraper and the browser scrapers.
