I am looking for a programmer who can design a "smart" web crawler/scraper that does the following:
1. Reads a book title, author, and edition from a mysql database.
2. Uses the title, author, and edition to search Amazon Associates for a link. (the link should look something like this: <iframe src="[login to view URL];bc1=FFFFFF&IS2=1&bg1=FFFFFF&fc1=000000&lc1=0000FF&t=calbook-20&o=1&p=8&l=as1&m=amazon&f=ifr&asins=0446603783" style="width:120px;height:240px;" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0"></iframe> )
3. Saves the link to the column next to title and author in the MySQL database.
This script MUST be coded in PHP, no exceptions. This crawler/scraper has to be "smart" because amazon may have several books under the same name or with many different versions. The MySQL database may not always include editions. Additionally, amazon may not necessarily have the books that I am looking for (in this case return null). Therefore, it must make the "smart" decision and select the most accurate/popular or not select any if it is not available on amazon. Only bid if you are experienced in this field. Also, please say "ABCD" to verify that you have read this whole project description.
