Home: Perl Programming Help: Intermediate: automatic input and store outputs using perl

junkchiu Novice Jun 25, 2008, 5:43 PM Post #1 of 4 (457 views) automatic input and store outputs using perl Can't Post I have a very specific task, and I am hoping to use Perl to solve it. I have 1500+ company name, city, and state information but I need street address and zip code. Therefore, I want to input the information to www.yellowpage.com and search for the street address and zip code of the company. I understand there might more than one result in the ouput page so I just need to store the first one. For example, on the yellowpage.com if I type KPMG and Los Angeles, CA, it will yield two results. I just want to store the street address of the first one, which is 355 S Grand Ave Los Angeles, CA 90071. Any perl script that can do the task is greatly appreciated. Thanks,

Delete your other thread, asking the same question in two forums is not appropriate. ------------------------------------------------- (This post was edited by KevinR on Jun 25, 2008, 8:23 PM)
