Attached is an outdated script that is used to scrape two sites. ? The sites have not had huge changes but enough to break the scripts. ? You may or may not wish to use the existing script, you may find it easier to start new. Below is a description of what is needed. ? This script does not have a scheduling function as described below so it will have to be added... The following to example sites are what the script is made to scrape from. [login to view URL] [login to view URL] The scripts must be dynamic and able to scrape all of the different universities. The urls to the universities are already available in a MySQL database. The scraper should scrape the following data, Term Department Course Section Title Author Publisher ISBN NewPrice UsedPrice and insert them into a mySQL database table. You will see after following the above links that in order to manually browse to all of the possible books, you have to use the pull-down menus. The script must also be able to stop and restart where it left off because there is a lot of data and server errors may occur. A scheduling feature may be needed to help this.
