Please fix this crawler. Two things: The attached files should be installed on your local machine, included in the zip is [url removed, login to view] for building the database the crawler uses. To see the program, open "localhost" in your webbrowser to the index file of the program. The form has a "keyword" field, and a "city/zip code" field. If you enter for example: "happy hour" in the keyword, and "Dallas, TX" in the city field, then a limit of 10 results and start the crawler. This program will visit [url removed, login to view] and search the website with the given data of the form. Task 1: This program works, if grabs the business information for each search result, however the crawler is designed to only find businesses where "happy hour: yes" appears in the business profile, currently, if you crawl 1000 businesses, eventually the business will not have "happy hour: yes" in the profile page for the businesses. This needs to be fixed so the crawler stops collecting data once it has stopped finding businesses where "happy hour: yes" appears in the business profile. Task 2: Make a similar program like the attached, but modify it to work with [url removed, login to view] instead.
