I have watch many tutorials on this HTML subject, but I'm not understanding why this code is not working. I'm trying to get the Bid Price, and the code runs without error, but prints nothing. What am I doing wrong??? Very Frustrated!!! Please help. Thank you kindly.

    Dim XMLPage As New MSXML2.XMLHTTP60
    Dim htmlDoc As New MSHTML.HTMLDocument
    Dim URL As String
    Dim HTMLspans As MSHTML.IHTMLElementCollection
    Dim HTMLspan As MSHTML.IHTMLElement
    Dim titleElem As Object
    Dim topic As HTMLHtmlElement
    


    URL = "https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/DIS181123C00101000?p=DIS181123C00101000"
    
    XMLPage.Open "GET", URL, False
    XMLPage.send
    
    htmlDoc.body.innerHTML = XMLPage.responseText
    
    Set HTMLspans = htmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("Bxz(bb) Bdbw(1px) Bdbs(s) Bdc($c-fuji-grey-c) H(36px) ")
    
    For Each HTMLspan In HTMLspans
    
        If HTMLspan.className = "Ta(end) Fw(b) Lh(14px)" Then
            Debug.Print HTMLspan.innerText
        End If
    
    Next HTMLspan
    
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

How to total the visible cells?
From the first blank cell below a filtered data set, press Alt+=. Instead of SUM, you will get SUBTOTAL(9,)
It would mean your If..Then test is failing. Perhaps what you think are normal spaces (ASCII 32) are really HTML non-breaking spaces (ASCII 160)?

Actually, when I single-step through it, it is the For Each that does nothing.

HTMLspans Is Nothing is False, but TypeName(HTMLspans.item) displays Nothing.

Honestly, I don't know enough about this to interpret what is going on. But hopefully someone like Rick can explain.

your set should be to class name rather than tag name.

the below code gives an output of :

Previous Close16.17
Open16.17
Bid0.00
Ask0.00
Expire Date2018-11-23
Day's Range16.17 - 16.17
Contract RangeN/A
Volume1


A further if would give you the bid price only

        End If

End Sub
