Can anyone point me in the right direction for creating or learning how to create spiders or scripts/macros to crawl a website for product data and flag updated or new information in a csv?
Thanks.

2,309 PointsJames, I am new to spiders. But I do not have access to the backend files/database. I think once I had done an initial crawl and extract all the product detail, I would then create a file or DB table to compare future crawls against.
