Re: [syndication] Parsing script

There are quite a few scripts on Resource Index (and similar sites.) that can do the job. Some of the scripts are specific to certain sites, but some are generic that can be used for your purposes: 

http://cgi.resourceindex.com/Programs_and_Scripts/Perl/Content_Retrieval/

?Fetcher? is a good one.  I have used that in the past.

Hello all,
I'd like to convert third-party HTML pages to RSS by cut out needed info from 
them. For example, our ISP has the page with the current temperature in our
city. I want to make a RSS feed from it containting this temperature only
without HTML decoration. It could be made by some PHP/Perl script and RegExp, 
hosted on my server.
Is there any ready to use sripts where I can set up my own regular expressions 
and get RSS feed from third-party HTML pages (suppose all legal aspects of
using their information are OK) ?

Regards,
Jury Gerasimov
