"Spidering Hacks" by O'Reilly is targeted at everyone who wants to automate surfing the web and has a little bit of programming experience. Though each of the hacks in the book covers a particular topic, similar to books in the Cookbook series, there is also a lot of material that is generally applicable in each of them.

Too bad it's in perl, php would be more usefull for me as it's what im working woth at the moment. I kind of dislike the cookbook (the php one), i remember i had a hard time finding about string concatenation the first time i used it, had to use google to find out that it's with a "." instead of the "+" (i come from a c/c++ backgroung :-P).
