[QUOTE="waeberd, post: 4226, member: 10343"] Hi Forbes, You're NOT talking nonsense, so just keep it up :-) It's not that complicated, I think! We could decide to have some (two or three) fixed views like: * MOVIES BY TOWN/ZIP * NEW MOVIES OF THE WEEK and maybe some FEW(!) more In plugin configuration, a user could decide, which views are activated for his MP installation. Then a toggle button "VIEW BY TOWN" / "VIEW NEWS" / ... that remembers its setting on exiting MP will do the job! (and for a Swiss guy like me where cinemas all have their own crappy proprietary selfmade homepage :twisted: :arrow: no scraping at all - the only VIEW that makes sense is the NEWS-view on the german yahoo-movies page). Another story is the YAHOO scraping: MAYBE it's necessary to write country-dependent scraping code. This would lead to some work... but with a reasonable class-architecture, this should be cool to do.... ah... funny! I swear I wrote my stuff BEFORE peeking here! :-) :arrow: "VIEW BY TOWN" / "VIEW BY MOVIE" / "NEWS OF THE WEEK" Three views and that's it! Hope this is understandable and not too much dev-slang! What do you think? Daniel [/QUOTE]
