Greetings,

we are in need of a very short script that does basically that: Scraping a single value of a site which is AJAX based. The site is visible here:

www[dot]swoopo[dot]at

Now what we need to have scraped is the rest time until the auction end.
So e.g. if you have a look here:
swoopo[dot]at/auktion/jura-impressa-c5-schwarz-/125285.html

Then there is the auction end of that current article shown and that we need to have scraped. As a matter of notification: That value is not within the source code as in usual html documents but is rather more ajax triggered.

Finally we need the code to be open source, our copyright - and most important - fast.

We would highly prefer the code being done in PHP (as a function that we pass the url on and that returns the value of auction end) but a cgi or any other script we can start from command line would be ok as well.

So once again: The job is small and can sure easily be done very quick, but only if you got experience in how to scrape AJAX based sites.
