[PHP] tracking changes on a remote webpage From: Kristjan Kanarik (kanarik <email protected>)

HiHi,

I've a problem to solve and I don't know where I should start. I'll try to
put it as detailed as I can...

5 times per week [Mon-Fri] at a certain time of the day [call it TIME]
there are changes made on a remote webpage [http://remoteurlLetItBeThen.ee].

The page is something like this:
--------------------------------------------------------------
Sometext here to give an introduction what the page is about. And after
this there is a table (html, using <tr> and <td>):

|----------|-------------|-------------------|
| NAME | ID | AMOUNT |
|----------|-------------|-------------------|
| name1 | unique ID | an int number |
| name2 | unique ID | another number |
|----------|-------------|-------------------|

some text also here to sum up the thing

-----------------------------------------------------------------

What I'd like to achieve is get listed the changes for the last 5 days in
the AMOUNT field AND this only for the top100 (sorted by amount). The
entries on the webpage are already sorted by amount as well...

I have MySQL and PHP 4.0.2 to use. Any ideas where should I start? Any
good tutorials which could help me? Any (PSEUDO) code somebody could
put down for me?

TIA,
Kristjan
