We need to scrape the venue database from [login to view URL] It must create an associative array with the indexes stated below: 'name' => venue name 'phone' => phone number 'address' => street address 'city' => city name 'state' => two letter state abbreviation 'zip' => zip code 'subcategory' => the subcategory of the bar (for example Bars & Clubs > After Work would be After Work) The array should be serialized and saved to a file. Each city should have a separate file. note: we want the script, not the serialized data.

I can do this. Is there is a specific reason that you need to have the data in php serialized format? The reason I say that is that php isn't that great at web crawling. The same thing could be done with perl and perl modules in 100 lines of code, and I can encode the data into php serialized objects in a file. Did you plan on running the PHP script in a cron job? Or do you want a script that scrapes the site when executed from the browser? That will be slow to the user. It looks like there aren't a lot of records on that site it should be fairly simple to crawl that site and get all the records on a nightly/weekly basis.
