Description 

Author

This class can extract information from Web site pages.

It can either retrieve a single page, a group of pages from a Web site given a base URL and a range of values that will replace template parameters in that URL, or a group of pages with given URLs.

The class can use selector path values to define elements in the page from which it will extract the relevant page content values.

Some applications need to retrieve information that is only available to the public in Web site pages.

This class makes it easier to retrieve and parse many Web pages at once to extract information that is displayed in the same relative position of the pages.
