Hello everyone,

I don't know much about technology in general but I have this idea which I'm sure is possible and very common, all I need is someone to give me a name so I know where to look. Anyway here is the idea I'm trying to convey here:

I want to start a comparative shopping wesbite and as you all know those sites have thousands of prodct pages and I can't possibly work on each one of these page by page. I want to know if there's any program or application that would make it possible for me to choose a format for all my pages and then select the product pages which I recieve from my retail partners and immediatey all those pages wll convert to the style and format of my own templates?

Is this possible and if so what is the program or application that enables it called?

That is absolutely possible, but there is not just one application that would let you do that (that I know of). Instead, you'll have to utilize your retail partner's web services and data feeds, probably transform the XML in some way (via XSLT, maybe), and then display it in your own style. Not hard, but a lot of work if you want to do it right.
