I need a php script that will scrape the information from a web page. The page allows for selection of several options. The script will have to account for those options.
Here is the page.
[login to view URL]
You will have to select the country, state (if country is United States), and course to get the results that I want to scrape.
- I want to create a delimited file with the name, location, contact info, and certifications (listbox on the right). The delimiter will be a "~".
- The script will need to accept parameters (country, state, course, output file) to run.
- The parameters will have to account for the fact that state is not usable outside the United States.
- If the output file exists, the script needs to append to the file listed.
- There is a high chance that many selections will return nothing. The script needs to handle that. (Select United States -> Arizona -> Cavern Instructor to see an example)
Over 9 years on web development and 5 years specific with PHP.
In order to complete this project there are some items to be discussed after the approval:
- Where this script is going to be hosted
- Would it be on demand or a scheduled task?
Looking forward to start working.
