Screen Scraping Exercise 2

April 15th, 2011 Comments off

Given a list of up to several hundred thousand Chinese terms, write a C# program that will fetch search result count and the first 10 headlines (plain text headline, newspaper link, article link and date) from news.baidu.com into a SQLite or SQLServer database. Write out all SQL inserts explicitly. Headlines should be exact match. An API for Baidu may exist, if so, use it. Searching RSS feeds may be more straight forward, if so, do it. Use UTF8 encoding. Expected tables as described below.

Terms:
termid
term (text, unique)

Search Results
searchid
termid
count (integer)
searched (datetime)

Headlines:
headlineid
headline (text, unique) – make sure this is long enough

TermHeadlines:
termid
headlineid

Given a term, I should be able to get the hit count and the latest 10 sample headlines. The term MUST be present in the headline.

Please successful complete one run (we will review partial results) and provide source code. For a large sample word list, you may use the simplified or traditional (or both) column from cc-cedict.org

Redo Headlines

January 23rd, 2010 Comments off

Hey,

I have a custom headline that is an image created in photoshop. I need 6 different versions of it each slightly changed.

Basically I need someone to recreate the headline so the font and shadow looks exactly the same and then make it duplicate it so I end up with six different headlines.

The text for the different headlines is in the attached file. The headline that I am talking about is at www.dominatemysportsbetting.com

Then after the new headline images have been created, I need someone to replace the old with the new on the html pages.

Need Rockettheme Joomla Expert

December 30th, 2009 Comments off

I have a site here: f p p d dot org / joomla

that has joomla installed with a theme and would like it change to this RocketTheme here (which I have with all pluggins):

http://demo.rockettheme.com/may09/index.php

the menu on the left will be move to the top also next to Home under Resources and all the ones on top will remain on top.

- I want the sliding pics to stay
-the weather on the right top to stay
- the top headlines to stay (that will be pulling news from a news section, currently it’s called news releases)
-polls, login form and ads on right can go
- under top headlines, move Media Headlines there (it will pull videos from a page of youtube)

- the small banners you see at bottom should be organized somehow on the front page.

- there may be a few more small changes

this should be easy for you if you’re familiar with their themes.

Full News Feed Implementation

July 1st, 2009 Comments off

I need an experienced person to custom install a full news feed on my website. It has to be tailored around my wordpress theme. Below are the different customization details to use however I need the coding behind it to pass my web developer toolbar check once finished.

I need this done quickly!

Styling The News Feed:

Below are the different css classes used that can be used to style the headlines and stories.

* StoryTitle – Title in Headline view
* StoryText – Description in Headline view
* StoryItem – Row in Headline view
* StoryItemAlt – Alternating Row in Headline view
* HeadlineLink – Return to Headlines Link
* SingleStoryTitle – Title in Story View
* SingleStoryItem – Story Row/Div in Story View
* SingleStoryText – Story details in Story View

Feed Options

* subscriberKey = string : Required to show feeds
* HeadlineResults – string: The name of the div which will contain the list of headlines that are to be shown. By Default Headline and Results are shown in same div.
* StoryResults – string : The name of the div which will contain the story that is chosen. By Default Headline and Results are shown in same div.
* NumHeadlines – int : The number of headlines to show in the HeadlineResults div
* StoryUrl – string : If you want the story to link to a different page, you need to setup this parameter to the url of the Story. The javascript will add the required QueryString Parameter tho this url as specified by the StoryIdParam option
* StoryIdParam – string : If you want to specify a different querystring parameter for the story ID instead of the default parameter, specify it here. You may need to do this if you use the default StoryIdParam for something else
* ShowReturnLink – bool : This option will toggle whether or not the ‘Return to Headlines’ link is shown when viewing a story.
* ReturnLinkUrl – string : This option will allow you to use a different link other than the default javascript to show the headlines page. It will only show if ShowReturnLink = true
* ReturnLinkText – string : This option will allow you to display different text for the ‘Return to Headlines’ link
* ShowTitleOnly – bool : This option will allow you to only show the headline and not the description in the headline view
* StoryId – int : If you want to specify the StoryId, it can be specified here and will pull this story. *Be aware that the story will not pull if it has expired (is no longer one of the latest 10 stories)

Option Defaults

<script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://feeds.mortgagenewsdaily.com/Scripts/NewsFeed.js” id=”MNDNewsFeed”>
{ subscriberKey : null,
HeadlineResults : “newsResults”,
StoryResults : “newsResults”,

StoryIdParam : “storyId”,
ShowReturnLink : true,
