$15-25 USD / hour

I need to set up on my linux, apache, php server something such as a Curl login and aqcuire information which can then be parsed and written to a file. What I am looking for is a PHP script which will automatically login to a https site, query a form for some data (time stamps) and then return the data. I have done this myself before but this is now proving difficult as the site has modified and includes ajax, requires verficiation and so on, whereas it used to be just html (dead easy). As long as I can get a cookie/session running then the verficiation (of the type write in the letters numbers) can be updated manually periodically once a login expires, however its very important I get the data out. The URL I need to call and login from looks like this: [login to view URL] and its not returned any of my methods yet. Any expert who can help on this, let me know.

This sounds fun. I like doing projects like this. I have good experience with PHP and cURL, and I have written AJAX scripts with PHP before, so, I know the specifics of how to "trick" the remote AJAX script into thinking it was submitted via JavaScript (in the client's web browser.)

Hi Alex, It's usual for me to use curl for web scraping task whether it's https or not, using cookies or not, it doesn't matter but please inform me the URL for review. I think it should be feasible enough if the site is not applying such obfuscated javascript especially if it's that deep. Regards, Ibnu
