It is interesting that the column "symbol" isn't part of the resultset. I 
would have expected it to be included.

Now, I know you are trolling.

First, you wait 6 years to reply to a post
Second, you post with an off-topic reply
Third, you post irrelevant data in your reply to the post calling you out, and
Fourth, you post more irrelevant (and apparently manufactured) data

you can request any symbol's option data, then I can put here. It shows
I have the code to download the data and save into mysql db. 

********************
cboe uses the large string which exceeds the max string size(c, c++),
so I send the http requests with two socket requests. 

"__EVENTTARGET=&__EVENTARGUMENT=...

The string size is more than 41044
