Hi,
I need to run data scraping for 3 locations and paste to an excel ,so i used for each row, but am getting the same output instead of location changes.
The thing is first which ever data i scrapped that is coming to all the 3 locations.
If am not sure we need to use selectors in this,if so can u tell me how to use,because i tried using but i don’t have idea where and what to change

The selector is passing same in all the three scraping areas. DO this
select three scraping wizards and compare the selectors , you will understand where can you change @Karthik_Kulkarni
only IDX value is changing ,for 3 different scarpping different values am getting,
so with that can i do something

Are you sure the page is typing the next name in the city datatable @Karthik_Kulkarni ?
