    Hello. Does anyone know where I can find or purchase some sort of TV/Satellite listings script for a website of mine? A site that comes to mind (or that my client likes) is: http://liveonsat.com/

    Is there such a thing or must I start from scratch? Thanks.

    It depends on what you need.

    If you don't need anything too specific, you can get a multitude of scripts and try to work a few of them into doing what you need.

    Otherwise, I really doubt there are any custom made for this niche. You'll probably have to start from scratch.

    Well, I don't need something exactly like that site, just any script in general. I can't seem to find any at hotscripts.com nor through a quick Google search. Do you know of any located somewhere? Thanks.

    There is something called XMLTV (look it up on google), you (your bot/spider) can go around the net and scrape all these diffrent XMLTV listings and generate reports for your page.

    Or you can buy listings from many providers, like "zap2it" or a new service "schedulesdirect".
