Yes, that is probably the problem, when I looked for the text it returned:

[ 0:{ "selector":".bloc-blanc > p:nth-child(1)" "text":" 0 école(s) correspondent à votre recherche " } ]

Aha! I see, it shows data based on POST request from FORM on this page http://www.dsden93.ac-creteil.fr/spip/spip.php?page=annu1d so if you provide just a link to the results page without the POST data then it will show you nothing. Sadly the tool currently does not allow for sending POST requests to the websites.

Thanks for your replies, I've successfully been parsing this page with others parsers though.

Edit: the page changed and it's not working anymore. Sorry for the false alarm, my bad.
