Spider amelioration

[dgemily]

We have some problems using “spiders” on web sites with French characters.
We get “??” in the xml database instead of é, è, à etc….
Steven, is it possible to fix that? Thanks.

One other thing:
I built spiders to search on “cooking recipes” Web sites in the aim of having a “cooking recipes” application online in xlobby. This works perfectly except the result limitation that you added when we use spiders via a skin (not via the xlobby set up). We can not display more than 6 results by spider used. This limitation prevent me to integrate this application
It will be very nice if you can delete this limitation or add a spider event without limitation or what ever you want but without this restriction.
I know that is not the original use of the “spiders function” in xlobby but it will be very nice if we can use spiders, not only to feed our databases.

Thanks

Ok the ? bug is fixed now, now onto the limit bug

http://www.xlobby.com/xlobby2.zip

what you will do is at the beginning in your spider file, you will set the limit by adding the following line. Here are some examples, "limit=0" means NO limit, or "limit=4" means limit reasults to 4 per spider. So the first line in the spider would be one of these

limit=0

or

limit=4
