Description:	Since a few years, we have a contract with Cnet Channel to get every product informations (components, pictures of the product) in the computer industry. These informations are used to update 2 of our websites automaticaly every 6 hours. The used mode to get the informations is "Push", this means that we just get the product that have been updated or simply new products from Actebis (leading french computer provider). After this, we have to get the prices for the products. We have to download a file named catalog-act.txt from Actebis. Moreover, in this file we get the availability status of the product. We apply our percentage (mark up) on all prices. Then we upload the file on our server so the programme updating all the contents can run. All this is working perfectly since a few years as I said. This has to be ran at least 2 times per day as the price, the availability of the products change all the time. -- We were really happy of this software, but now the file catalog-act.txt has been modified by Actebis. They added some other variables, as the availability process (when, how, etc...) So the program we were using isn't working anymore. So we need a good developper with some Perl & PHP skills to update our current program so the process works back again. Sorry for my poor english. I am french. Thank you for your concern.
