Help with writing a data feed script

Hey all. I am trying to research how to make a data feed for one of my affiliate sites but having a hard time figuring this one out.

Are there any pre-made scripts I could use or does each merchant have their own script that I have to use from them?

I would like to create a store on my site from a music website called zZounds, which is kind of like musicians friend, but the only thing they say on their site is that I can get a data freed from a script that I write.

The problem is I don't know how to go about finding out how to do that.

If anyone has any info or can direct me where to go, I would truly appreciate it.

Thanks everyone

Andrew

    You take their csv and loop through it, store it in your own database, etc... If you've got no programming experience it's a great project to learn with. Go get a newbie php book, it will have everything you need to learn inside it and you can learn to do this in about a week.
