I need bot to fill out forms with 4 fields required

    I have , which I want a bot to fill profiles there.

    Bot to scour the web for restaurant names, location, country, zip, address, phone number and type
    To input and automatically register restaurants on my site.


    Payment is 50% to be made when bot is tested and works and 50% when bot is delivered and work.

    For the bot, I need to have Country preference, State preference, and even restaurant type preference. Then bot go and find info.

    Once bot retrieve data, I check data and their source for validity and edit whatever and then approve, then bot automatically fill in restaurants profile.

    It does not have to be any site to scour, could just search www and auto fill, should have an option for this, or an option to go to like yahoo.com to retrieve data.

    Note: There is a free API from whitepages.com
    The fields Irequire are simple.

    1) Restaurant Name
    2)Address: Street, city, state, zip, country, phone
    3)Restaurant type (chinese, italian, american)
    4)Restaurant category (buffet, pub, fine dining, casual etc.,)

    There's no need for menus, or pictures.
    If you can build a bot that that these info correctly, or able to edit one of those fields before I approve.

    So if I use only criteria state as in California, it would scour the web for restaurants in Cali.

    Budget is $100

    I diddled (haha funny word) around with some PHP coding and got a bot to make a profile on there. If you want it I'd gladly send it free of charge, it'll create an account every 60 minutes (15 at minimum)

    What? there's no need to sign up at my site. Just register profiles, anyone can do it. What do you mean, create an account every 60 minutes? Because the person I am working with said he'll use the API from the whitepages/yellowpages and yahoo api and make sure that there's no duplicate.

    He said, I should be able to grab every restaurants listing via yahoo and yellow pages out there.
    Let me know what you think .

    Thanks for dropping by.

    The site already has a built in edit option for each restaurants.

    All I need is mass checking, mass deletion, and mass uploads by bot.

    Eagle? you said you have a free bot? let me know know.

    This is update: site is www.allfoodmenu.com (I like to have a link mask, don't know why admin doesn't like it)

    The programmer I worked with has left my site in a big mess.

    1) Has the search result with error messages in the result page. Very undesirable PHP error, that is blatanly display for everyone to see. How professional.
    2) Has multiple bot listings on my admin pages for the same restaurants which I need to remove (very annoying) and takes time
    3) the bot turns out to be a mess, he has the bot list everything as chinese/french. Which is again an agitation.
    4) In restaurant detail/about us page, he uses some statements from restaurant reviews, without indicating sources and blatantly is going to get me sue.
    5) He is not responding, or making changes. Since he left my site with a mess Ineed someone to clean it up.

    --------------------------------------------------------
    Here's what I need you to do.
    1)Fix the the result page
    2) configure for me a bot that only list restaurants with Restaurant Name, Address (state, city, address, zip, usa,) phone number that will scour the web. Another bot uses API from Yahoo, Another one uses APIfrom White pages.
    No need for restaurant categories or anything. Just list everything as casual with name, address, contact info.
    Make sure your bot does not add same restaurant that is already in database.

    3)I need you to fix the admin panel for me.
    Add function to select multiple restaurant names, delete all selections, delete restaurant #, like 15,20, 12 etc., or 15-30, 250-300. Add function to approve all, approve selections, approve 15-20 etc.,
    Make each restaurants unique (no restaurant can have the same name) and each with a # id from 1- etc., in listing.
    Allow to sort by state, in alphabetical, sort by category in alphabetical (in admin panel) this already have been done in search results. Hopefully the guy in it didn't mess it up.
    Add column for state, add colum for restaurant type, add column by restaurant #, add column by when restaurant was inputed, mm/dd/yy data and allow sorting in all columns.

    Someone to do this quick, know what they are doing.

    Paying $75 USD. Must be done fast, else I have to revert back to my old files which doesn't have up to date restaurants which I pay others to manually input. Which is a pain again since I am paying already.


    4. I also need the theme to be change, and coloring, because from reviews I get its too bright and annoying hurting people's eyes.
    I need to have an input form too, where users send in their suggestions or questions to

    yes coloring is important, this is to fix all the coloring issue, change the background theme, etc., so that it looks something professional.
