Hi Christopher,<br><br>YQL still seems to be having trouble with the property attribute for HTML. However, I'm replying here just to show you a workaround that I've used in the past that might be useful to you in the mean time.<br><br>The workaround is to use XPath to query for the OG data. To do this, you can use the <span style="font-family:'Courier New';">xml</span><span style="font-family:Arial;"> table. Note that HTML != XML, so the page that you're consuming must be converted to valid XML. There are tools online for making XML out of HTML documents, the query below uses the W3C's tidy tool.<br></span><br><span style="font-family:'Courier New';">select *<br>from xml<br>where url in (<br> select content <br> from uritemplate <br> where template="http://services.w3.org/tidy/tidy?docAddr={addr}&forceXML=on" <br> and addr="http://ogp.me"<br>)<br>and itemPath="//*[local-name()='meta' and starts-with(@property, 'og:')]"<br></span><br>(<a href="http://y.ahoo.it/kxhdk">Try this in the console</a>)<br><br><br>To make this useful, I make the query have <span style="font-family:'Courier New';">addr=@uri, </span><span style="font-family:Arial;">set up a </span><a href="http://developer.yahoo.com/yql/guide/yql_url.html#yql-query-aliases">query alias</a> and send a <span style="font-family:'Courier New';">uri=<whatever></span> in the YQL URL. This allows cleaner YQL URLs (and changing of the query if it's broken!), e.g. <a href="http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql/peter/og?uri=http://ogp.me&format=json">http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql/peter/og?uri=http://ogp.me&format=json</a> <br><br><br><br><br><div class="quote "><div class="quotetop ">QUOTE<cite>(Christopher @ 30 Nov 2011 1:43 AM)</cite><blockquote class="quotemain">Hey!<br><br>sorry for pressuring but any news concerning this?<br>Is there perhaps a workaround?<br><br>Thanks.<br><br><div class="quote "><div class="quotetop ">QUOTE<cite>(Jan Pipes @ 26 Oct 2011 5:40 PM)</cite><blockquote class="quotemain">Hi Christopher,<br><br>I've created a ticket (4940602) for tracking purposes.

Please let me know if not.<br><br>I'm trying to scrape OpenGraph meta tags from websites.<br>Those meta tags look like this:<br><br><em><br></em><br>And my YQL query:<br><em>SELECT * FROM html WHERE url = 'http://domain.tld/foo' AND xpath='descendant-or-self::meta'<br></em><br>The problem is the response.
