PHB scraping/parsing problem

[davie36]

hi all. ive managed to scrape and parse the MM and DMG without any problems. But the player handbook is giving me a load of problems..


eg when scrape is done and weapon file is made . it shows this

ZHead; Military;Melee
ZHead2; two-handed
ZWeap; Maul; +2; 2d6; ; 30 gp; 12 lb.; HammerPublished in <a href="https://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=products/dndacc/217367200" target="_new">Player's Handbook 1, page;
ZHead; Simple;Melee
ZHead2; two-handed

ZWeap; Falchion; +3; 2d4; ; 25 gp; 7 lb.; Heavy bladePublished in <a href="https://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=products/dndacc/217367200" target="_new">Player's Handbook 1, page; High Crit

it seems to be inserting/overwritting the links at the end of the ddi compendium into the middle of the ZWeap.

its doing this for most items and other stuff aswell.

any help/ideas most welcome

ive downloaded the new parser ver 118

4.0.118
* General: Fixed the Familiar option to correctly toggle on and off based on the compendium

4.0.117
* Compendium: Fixed several issues with items that gained the useless "Published in " tag

4.0.116
* Compendium: Fixed Skill Power meta data

but when installed and run still shows itself as version 115 , with the same problems as before ..... help/advice or a BFH (for my comp )
