Re: Web scraping

Thanks Nadat

Fiddler2 looks promising and I will download and try it out this evening. My API development has been Excel & VBA to date but this isn't meeting my needs any more. In the early stages of migrating to PHP & MySQL. Initial signs are that this platform will provide sufficient flexibility for all I might want to do.

Web scraping

August 18, 2008 by jobsagoodun

As someone starting to look at this, can anyone suggest any useful resources, websites etc? I am already using the betfair API and would now like to supplement this with data fom several other websites (Racing Post, Sportinglife, Sporting Index). I would be very interested to hear from others about languages, tools and any hints & tips you might care to offer.
