+bartacus Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 Okay, call me lazy. "You're Lazy!" I'd like to (auto-magically) include my caches (found and hidden) on my personal webpage, without documenting them manually. I've skimmed over the old and new forums, but don't really see an exact reference to this. It looks like ClayJar might be doing something similar with PHP (which is definitely an option for me). Is there a central location or FAQ page for including (SSI/CGI/PHP/ASP) Geocaching backend info elsewhere? Thanks. Link to comment

+unclerojelio Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 But I think the answer to the original question is no. There is no programmer's interface. If you want to siphon info you are going to have to write code to grab the html pages and parse them yourself. I could be wrong though. ...

(My question was understood, that is.) Link to comment
