A few years ago, I had a script created that scrapes data from an external website and produces a series of structured text files. About a month ago, the script stopped working. I assume this is becasue the source website has changed the HTML output/structure rendering the reguar expression defunct. Your task is to fix this issue.
Here's the current code:
[login to view URL]
The script scrapes the following site:
[login to view URL]
Here's an example of the correct output .bm file:
[login to view URL]
The script is run daily as a CRON job to produce the text files and dump them into a directory on the web server.
I am looking for a very quick resolution; ideally you will be able to complete this before the end of today (Wednesday 6th March), or early tomorrow.
Please include the password "carrot" in your bid. Proposals lacking the password will be ignored. I am most likely to accept a propsoal from a coder who has analysed the problem and shows clear confidence that they're able to resolve the problem.
