HTML Harvester

The original purpose of this application is to save static content rendered from ASP.NET pages. (The system could also do this with PHP or other page rendinering scripts. This application isn't aware of the underlying scripting or database). The static pages are easily indexed by the search engines.

A variation on this, not currently developed, is to gather HTML content from a variety of sources, particularly for a site that periodically updates pricing or availability information. Such sites might include apartments, used equipment, livestock, or fungible commodities.

Normally this system will be customized for a client's specific purposes. Such purposes might include extracting dynamic content (i.e., prices, quantities, listings) for storage in a database.
