DECO1800 WEEK 8

This Week I ran into a serious problem. After using PHP to follow a link to the page where there would supposedly be free online article text I found I was unable to access any text. The reason for this was surprisingly simple. Most sites used a PDF window to display their journal articles, whilst copy pasting text from the page in person was possible, accessing the text through JavaScript or PHP was impossible (particularly to someone with my experience).
Hey Tutors! Leave us kids alone

What I need to do is determine a different source of text that I can use to populate my teams game. I must attempt to salvage the use of newspaper articles or perhaps access article text from books.

This issue has caused a considerable degree of stress to myself, but I intend to work out a solution with my group members next week and work around this problem.
