    Hello,

    I need a script that crawls through a website and extracts certain information. For example, scan through DigitalPoint and find all usernames that have an "x" in them. That's obviously not the task, but something like it. If you think you can do it, please PM me and I will give you the actual specifications that I am looking for. Thank you!

    NetworkTown, I'm not sure if this would be done in PHP or not.

    This would probably work best in JAVA, or maybe even some Macro script could work. I PM'ed you.

    This can be done with PHP using curl and RegExp.

    seokochin, maybe... but i'm really looking for this to be done one time and it doesn't have to be web-based, which should make it easier.
