I'm looking for someone to create a script that we can use to spider our site, and create an excel spreadsheet of all our products and related codes (template provided).
basically, we want to take all our products from this website, [[login to view URL]][1] and have them availalbe for upload to Biz Rate's website according to the following specs:
"In order for your product listings to appear in BizRate's Shopping Search Engine, you must provide us with your listings file.
+---- Product Listings Options -----------------------------------+
There are three options for creating your listings. Review the information below to select the option that best meets your needs.
1. Create a Product Listings Feed using BizRate's Feed Specification
Use this option if you intend to list many products. Below are
links to reference materials that you assist you in creating your
listings feed. After you create your feed, you must upload it to
BizRate (detailed in the step-by-step overview document below).

===========
So, I think this is fairly straight forward for the right coder. I can provide zip file of products pages to spider if needed.
I'm looking for either a one time script / spidering - or a standalone app that can spider a folder of pages, and create the spreadsheet.
Any questions, ust ask.
Thanks
