Garethp Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Ok, I want to scrape the database of a site that I need to use a Username and Password to enter. It's PHP driven and I know how to scrape data normally, I just don't know how to do this. Can someone help me?

GingerRobot Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 If you wanted someone to do this for you, you need to head over to the freelance forum. Otherwise, i'd say search for some beginner cURL tutorials. The process is going to be pretty much the same. If you run into troubles, then post with what you have so far.

xtopolis Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Find a basic cURL tutorial to show you how to read a page. The head over the php manual for cURL and look at the functions for POSTing data (to login). If you can get that far, you should be able to scrape just fine.
