OK, I've been using PCs since the Dial-In BBS days, but I've never had reason to do anything more than simple forms and page-open actions.
Now I need to make a new searchable Inventory page:
It must list every item (X, 2, 3, etc.) that is listed on Site A.
It needs to find the details for item X from Site B.
It needs to ask the Admin for further details and Photo URLs when an incomplete item is added.
Site A and B both use a login page.
Site A can then use absolute URLs to reach the main Inventory listing, which contains URLs to the pages with variable data.
Site B requires an item number from Site A to search for.
Site B uses frames, inside which are the keywords I need to locate.
Does any of this make sense? I need to load my inventory list from one site, fill in the details from another site, make any corrections manually, then load the resulting data into a seperate page for each item, and index those pages with an Inventory page.
Basically, I know what I need to do, but I have no idea how to do it!
Any help is appreciated. I'm not even sure what type of scripting language I should be using.
