    Hi all,

    Not even sure if this does belong in this section, but please redirect me if it doesn't. For those of us that have affiliate sites, most affiliates provide us with data feeds or specific data feed url with whcih we can link and extract information for our websites.

    Can anyone tell me how one goes about connecting to one of these files? Is it a regex enquiry? And how would one specify which info needs to be extracted etc.

    Many thanks Smiley

    I think what you are trying to talk about is an API. It is completely dependant on which service it is and how they work it. Some use XML output and rest servers, others ping your site with information that you have to manipulate.

    Which service are you talking about?
