More Updates
After converting all the textbooks to a digital format and getting it so I can easily throw around the data, I realized that I had completely screwed up with the course listings; I had imported Fall 2003 instead of Spring 2004 classes. Doh.
So I spent a lot of time fixing up my spidering script (that grabs all information). It works almost flawlessly now (still a few bugs that I'll work out later) ... so now I have the Spring 2004 classes sitting in a database.
I now have to resolve the differences between both sets of data and then integrate CE's functionality with it.
I'm almost done linking the data together in the DB (actually it's not as complex as I'm making it out to be; the class table just has an additional bookid column) ...
I'll soon start testing the site for bugs. Yay... bug testing ... always fun.
