"Load Html instead Json" feature for Item Page

[Maxx53]

Slower, but more stable method. Please test it.

P.S. Works only with Item Page tab. Do not try to items with new "buy orders" interface.

works 100 times better than the old version, great work max!!

[l4m0r]

Works good, thanks :)

Can you tro to implement it in a way that it doesn't affect newly listed (if I use this setting I get "parsing fail" on newly listed all the time) tho, please?

[Maxx53]

@l4m0r Sure, my bad.

[Maxx53]

Fixed

[l4m0r]

Thanks. Would you be so kind to update the binaries, too? I can't compile it myself at the moment, no access to VS.

[kitzik]

hmmm... Parsing fail all the way on Item Page tab when Scan HTML is on

[Maxx53]

@kitzik Not working with "buy orders" items.

@Maxx53 On the newly listed there are random 500ms-1000ms delay. However, the most important part is there is not Caching anymore :D

[l4m0r]

I noticed one new bug:

When using Scan HTML is ON, Newly listed is working a lot slower than with the HTML option being off (1 refresh in 3 seconds instead of 1 refresh in 1 seconds).

Also I agree with sabbir, would be great if you could make the random delays a bit smaller, so it still doesn't cache but gets more items.

[Maxx53]

There's one thread now, html loads slower. If you want to scan Page and Listed at the same time, requests will be queued.

[UgaBugaBoo]

Well hats off to you mate @Maxx53 you have done a great job this time, It seemed it was nearly impossible to stop the caching, but you figured it out. I admire your project and your contribution to the community.

Just ignore us when we seem like too greedy and needy.

Well it was working for a while, but the item page gives me "Jason without data" throughout the result. as @kitzik already mention. And the items I tested on are "key"s.

[l4m0r]

Okay, I understand Maxx53. Thanks for the explanation :)

I have one more idea/request tho: I'm sure it is possible to scan items with json (without getting json without data) problem, so I think html function is not really required.

I still scan item pages with old commit without errors (latest commit that you released before steam market was updated). I merely replaced item link with this: http://steamcommunity.com/market/listings/730/StatTrak%E2%84%A2%20AK-47%20%7C%20Vulcan%20%28Factory%20New%29?country=DE&language=english&currency=3&count=10

I can scan all day without getting "json without data", but with newer commits I get it.

/edit: Apparently adding language and currency fixes the "getting json without data problem", if I add it I can scan on new commit without that problem, too. :-)

@l4m0r where can I add this string for compilation ?

[l4m0r]

Nvm, I posted too early. It got less (at least thats what I feel) but it didnt fix it :(

I just search for this instead of http://steamcommunity.com/market/listings/730/StatTrak%E2%84%A2%20AK-47%20%7C%20Vulcan%20%28Factory%20New%29, put it right into item link textbox... not in the source code. It was needed in the old compiles before Maxx updated SCM after the Steam Market Update.

[UgaBugaBoo]

Scored 2 higher teir items in 24 hours. :D

[l4m0r]

Can confirm it is working good :)
