Hello, 
I would like to download databases from Yellow pages (Canada) but the phone number is hidden as on this example:

https://www.yellowpages.ca/search/si/1/plumber/Toronto+ON

In order to see the phone number we need to click on (phone number). Is your software able to work around this problem. If so, can you direct me to the information so that I can start using your services.

  Hi Jean,
  
  Thanks for reaching out to us, this is Fergus with Octoparse.
  
  Yes, there is a workaround. We can extract the phone number directly from the HTML source. We don't have to click the button to display the number.
  
  You can put this XPath //LI/H4 into the custom data field.

  What is XPath and how to use it in Octoparse
  Customize element XPath
