The Internet is bigger and better than what a mere browser allows.

Webbots, Spiders, and Screen Scrapers is for programmers and

businesspeople who want to take full advantage of the vast resources

available on the Web. There's no reason to let browsers limit your

online experience-especially when you can easily automate online tasks

to suit your individual needs. Learn how to write webbots and spiders

that do all this and more:

- Programmatically Buy It at Lowest Price on Amazon

download entire websites

- Effectively parse data from web pages

- Manage cookies

- Decode encrypted files

- Automate form submissions

- Send and receive email

- Send SMS alerts to your cell phone

- Unlock password-protected websites

- Automatically bid in online auctions

- Exchange data with FTP and NNTP servers Sample projects using

standard code libraries reinforce these new skills. You'll learn how to

create your own webbots and spiders that track online prices, aggregate

different data sources into a single web page, and archive the online

data you just can't live without. You'll learn inside information from

an experienced webbot developer on how and when to write stealthy

webbots that mimic human behavior, tips for developing fault-tolerant

designs, and various methods for launching and scheduling webbots.

You'll also get advice on how to write webbots and spiders that respect

website owner property rights, plus techniques for shielding websites

from unwanted robots. As a bonus, visit the author's website to test

your webbots on sample target pages, and to download the scripts and

code libraries used in the book. Some tasks are just too tedious-or too

important!- to leave to humans. Once you've automated your online life,

you'll never let a browser limit the way you use the Internet again.
