Exactly.... anyone who's followed them at all can see that things are not going to end up well there. They owe a lot of people a lot of $$ on payment plans.

What do you need to know?

this isnt a huge problem since there are 1000 ways around it but it seems like there should be a quick xpath solution. heres an example. sorry the formatting got ****ed. so to find nodes a with href its "//a[@href]" or to find a with href some specific value its "//a[@href = 'foo']". i want all a nodes where the href contains the string "boxes". is there a quick way to do it just with xpath?

<strong>CHW</strong> @BOS <a href="/boxes/BOS/BOS201106010.shtml"> 7-4 </a> <a href="/players/f/floydga01.shtml">G. Floyd</a> <a href="/players/a/alberma01.shtml">M. Albers</a>

//a[contains(@href, 'boxes')]

[sayhey69]

thanks. knew how to use contains() on the value but not attribute. that should cut out one line of grepping in any code ive written that had this issue.

unluckyboy my code keeps on getting shorter and shorter

Looking at 5d review on sbr, it says you limits can be placed on professionals and 'price traders'. What is that? line shopping? arbing?

In the last two weeks? About break even I think... Been consistently even in MLB for the last 3 weeks unfortunately.

no. youre really over thinking this. rsigleys said it a bunch of times.

for a given fg total fine games in your db that had the same total then look at those games 1q and see how many go over and under the given line

i'm going to retire from posting. bo pointed out to me what a waste of time it was and i disagreed because i cared a lot and liked helping people but now its clear what a waste of time it is to try and help people. there's no benefits to it

i never got one useful thing out of it

i would post henry17.jpg to make it official but i can't find it right now
