attr{attrkey} is not working

[lostinroom]

I try your example.
curl http://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2013/games.htm | pup table#games 'a[href_=boxscores]'
It gives me a result.
However, if I use curl http://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2013/games.htm | pup table#games 'a[href_=boxscores]' attr{href}, it returns empty.

I use https://github.com/EricChiang/pup/releases/download/0.1.1/pup_linux_386 to execute it.

Thanks

What version of linux are you using? This works fine for me:

Thanks for quick response.

This is the result of uname -a
Linux machine1 3.7.10-bgrml64w-09 #1 SMP Mon Oct 21 08:00:02 CDT 2013 x86_64 GNU/Linux

This is the result of lsb_release -a
Distributor ID: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux 7.5 (wheezy)
Release: 7.5
Codename: wheezy

Ran my Dockerfile with FROM debian:wheezy and everything worked :(

Don't know what other advice I can offer but I'd mess with pup a little more and see if you can get other examples to break. If you can give me something more to work with I'd be happy to take a look at it.

Do you have a file in that directory called attrhref? Your shell could be
doing some rewriting.

[ericchiang]

Having a file doesn't effect the output:
https://gist.github.com/EricChiang/490b2b5aa6d73529348b#file-dockerfile2

Try using 'attr{href}' (with single quotes around it). It'll prevent your shell from interpreting it funny.

Hi,
You are right. It works either I add single quote 'attr{href}' or add slash to curly bracket. attr{href}.

Thanks for your help.
