Hey!

Anyone know of a good job search script that returns the results from all the majors (hotjobs, monster, etc.)

I don't know of any off hand, but you shouldn't have too difficult of a time creating one--what with LWP and maybe a few other things and a small bit of code. More information about how you'd want it to work and interact *if you want it to* would help.

User would search from say my site and the results would be returned on my hypothetical site.

I would love for the results to include Hotjobs and Monster.

LWP would definitely be involved, but I haven't a clue on what would be needed to pull this off.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi,

You can use LWP to do several things.

Grab the data from the remote site in real time (passing referer, post, or get mthods as needed with the relevant data, as needed (from the user's input on your site)).

Parse the data you grabbed according to your needs and the other site.

Output that parsed data in whatever manner you intend on your site.

Repeat.

I'm sure there's a few examples out there you can use or look at, though I don't know if any off of the top of my head. LWP makes it very easy.

I don't have a problem just grabbing the html using LWP, but to search and bring it in, that is a whole 'nother story.

If anyone has a snippet of code to get me started that would be great.

thank!
