I am working on a script to extract statistics (which is updated daily) from
a website, and insert them into a MySQL database. I want to take this
website:
http://www.usatoday.com/sports/basketball/nba/stats/allplayers0304.htm
and strip off all the HTML tags and etc, make it look like
http://www.enlhoops.com/ratings/parsed.txt
and then insert each players stat line into the database.
I have begun writing the script, getting the file, striping html tags off,
but that doesn't seem to work too well. If anyone can help me get started,
suggest a function or anything else, that would be helpful. Thanks.
