Hi all, Is there any sample code for creating a product availability tracker which refreshes and shows availability of product from different merchants eg: wiitracker.com Thanks, TECHIEPERSON.
Depends what merchants you are trying to track. The merchant would probably need to have an API that gives access to product availability. There is no specific code that can do this. You would have to program a custom script that takes into account different merchant backends. wiitracker.com probably uses a small custom spider or scraper to see the availability of the will. The site is able to track one product, the Wii, but nothing else. Adding more products would be a problem for the site. The same would be the case for your site. It may be easy to track one product. But tracking the availability of multiple products from multiple retailers is very very difficult to do. Retailer sites are changing on a daily basis. There is no way for an automated script to keep up with these changes.
