Project Description:
Preferred technology: Perl. I think, PHP may do the job too, however, I am not comfortable with PHP. So if proposed solution is in PHP, please tell me the reason to switch.
Since GAF does not allow HTML tags, I have replaced < and > by -.
Objective:
Sign in to a 3rd party SUPPLIERSITE. Search for products by name (APPROX PROD NAME).
Extract text from the of results: Each result comes in -div- tag.
Generate a table with a "Add to queue" link for each search result.
Let user click to one of the links.
Reload the page with previous table.
Requirments:
1) Sign in to the website over HTTP
2) Execute following GET query
http://www.SUPPLIERSITE.com/search/PRODUCT/PRODUCT?keyword=APPROX PROD NAME&lc.1.viewType=list
3) Extract all links of the form:
-span- class="title"
-a- href="/catalog/PRODUCTDetails/212084" title="PROD NAME"
onmouseover="if(DndUtil.windowLoaded){new PRODUCTRollover(this);}"-
PROD NAME -/a-
span
4) Extract all texts between "- and -/a-, i.e, "PROD NAME"
5) Extract all texts between /PRODUCTDetails/ and " (i.e 212084)
6) Generate following HTML table for all extracted rows:
-table-
-tr-
-td-
-span class="title"-
-a href="http://www.SUPPLIERSITE.com/catalog/PRODUCTDetails/212084" title="PROD NAME""-
