dilbertone Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Hello dear Community, hello dear Andy I want to parse a site that is called the foundation-finder: My Perl knowledge is pretty small! I have tried various tutorials (examples of Mecha - that i have found on the CPAN) not oll of them work - some of them are broken! Now i try t o get some real-world-task! the Foundation-Finder-task has several steps: Especially interesting for me as a PHP/Perl-beginner is this site in Switzerland: http://www.edi.admin.ch/esv/00475/00698/index.html?lang=de&webgrab_path=http://esv2000.edi.admin.ch/d/entry.asp?Id=3221 which has a dataset of 2700 foundations. All the data are free to use - with no limitations copyrights on it. i mused about a starting-point: ould i use a Perl-module from CPAN and do the job with Perl.I guess that Mechanize or LWP could do a great job. Or HTML::Parser well - i am just musing which is the best way to do the job. Guess that i am in front of a nice learning curve. This task will give me some nice PHP or Perl lessions. Or can we do this with Python either!? I guess so! So here i am! So here is a sample-page for the real-world-task a governmental site in Switzerland: more than 2'700 foundations in http://www.edi.admin.ch/esv/00475/00698/index.html?lang=de&webgrab_path=http://esv2000.edi.admin.ch/d/entry.asp?Id=3221 can i do this with mecha!? love to get a hint thx matz Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/236608-parserscript-with-perl-or-php/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
