Hi folks.
I regularly have to use a multitude of websites with search functions
and get a bit bored opening sites, closing them and flicking between
tabs in FF etc.
How difficult would it be to scoop up the relevant pieces from those
sites, put them into a single page and host it locally - so that you
see all the search functions from multiple sites on one page, enter
the details you want and away it goes as normal?
I have no care for any other information except the search box, tick
box and track button. Oh and the results.

You could check out Selenium, which is a tool for automating browser
sessions for testing purposes.

I started playing around with that UPS one to see if I could just pull the
form out and stick in my own page. It then started getting involved with
javascript, so I stopped.
