problems with webread command

Question

0 个投票

Hello,

I am using 'webread' within several for loops to extract data from webpages (Google patents and Uspto patents website). It works perfecty for a few minutes, but then I get this error, not always in the same page: see below.

What is the problem? I changed the timeout in weboptions. I also inserted a try and catch statement, and the algorithm doesn't stop anymore but it remain stuck on the last result, as is the connection is lost and cannot be re-established.

Any idea?

Thanks!
