web scraping from google page no longer returns anything
The below Excel vba code use to work and return the market cap, 52 week low and current price into my spreadsheet. It no longer does though and cannot work out why. Class names haven't changed but the getElementsByClassName
doesn't seem to return anything anymore I think.
Sub get_title_header()
Dim wb As Object
Dim doc As Object
Dim sURL As String
Dim i As Integer
Dim allElements As IHTMLElementCollection
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Set wb = CreateObject("internetExplorer.Application")
sURL = "https://www.google.com/search?q=aapl+stock+quote"
wb.navigate sURL
wb.Visible = False
While wb.Busy
Application.Wait Now + #12:00:01 AM#
DoEvents
Wend
Set doc = wb.document.body
On Error GoTo err_clear
Set allElements = doc.getElementsByClassName("iyjjgb")
x = allElements(3).innerText
Sheet6.Cells(i + 1, 2).Value = x
x = allElements(8).innerText
Sheet6.Cells(i + 1, 3).Value = x
x = ""
x = allElements(0).innerText
Sheet6.Cells(i + 1, 4).Value = x
x = ""
err_clear:
If Err <> 0 Then
Err.Clear
Resume Next
End If
wb.Quit
End Sub
