Hello,

I am a Perl scripting expert able to code your scripts within a week.

The Perl/CGI admin script will permit users to register URLs for monitoring according to your specifications. The script will store data into a MySQL database.

I can extend an admin script I wrote to verify URLs to also retrieve contents and the first level links to compare to cached data. This script will run as a cron job, checking any URLs due for monitoring.

I intend to use publicly available Perl modules for fetching webpage contents. With your permission, your admin interface will be constructed from HTML templates.
