Website visit automation script
-
The script needs to visit a series of game retailer websites and input some keywords into their search boxes. Then it yields the product results sorted by price in an HTML table in a separate page. The resulting HTML table is a list of the accumulated results. The goal is to obtain a sorted overview of the total result set, sorted by price so that the cheapest version of the game (lowest price) is visible on the top of the list. How would I begin coding this? Is another implementation language recommended (Javascript, AHK, Selenium, etc.)?
