Literary Agents List - Final Output is Blank

[gabriel-baptiste]

Hello and thank you for this excellent guide.

I previously utilized this tool and all was working fine and very useful.

Recently, when using the following step:

curl 'https://www.pw.org/literary_agents?filter0=9677&field_electronic_submissions_value=All&items_per_page=All' > literary-agents-pw-org.html
xmllint --html --xpath "//li[contains(@Class, 'views-row')]" literary-agents-pw-org.html | xmllint --html --xpath '//text()' - | cut -d: -f2 | sed 's/^[\ ]+//g' > literary-agents-pw-org.txt
python literary_agent_parsing.py --input-file literary-agents-pw-org.txt | sort -u > literary-agents.txt

the terminal displays a variety of HTML parser errors and the the final output file - literary-agents.txt - is empty.

I am not sure why it is no longer working and I really appreciate any help you may provide. Thank you.

Hi @gabriel-baptiste, terribly sorry for not noticing this in over a year. I'm sure you've moved on, but if you're still interested I can definitely make this fix (assuming you haven't already). Thanks for letting me know!
