okay, I am doing this for a search engine (one of my clients). There is huge list of URLs and I need to grab summary of 200 chars from the core section of it. All URLs are like encyclopedia, so the pages have same template, well 80% of times. I needed to manually find out the way to extract core content. Is this called site scrapping?
Site scrapping is taking data from a website, either through automated means like writing scripts or by manully copying. estentially scrapping means data extraction from a webpage.
