How to divert the website

Archimedes · 03-21-2006, 10:48 PM

Hi all, this my first post with the question and hope you guys can help me.

I have a travel agent and i have own website (let say "A"). My website is simply to show company profile. For booking i use other company (let say "B")that i pay to them monthly so i can use their website to find the flight with the fare that i want.

The problem is, the customer keep calling me to ask about the flight and i have to check to B to see the available flight and fare.

So now i want to add search engine in my own website so my customer can search by themself and the data that they key in divert directly to the B and then the result from B is sent back to my website. So every customer only face my website.

What is the best solution to do this?

Thank you very much.

You won't be able to provide that info on your site without giving away the fact that you're using another site. Unless, company B allows their information to be accessed via some type of web API. Amazon.com does this to a large extent. You can completely integrate amazon products/searching/shopping cart/etc into your own site. If company B does not allow this type of integration, then the best thing you can do is contact them and see if they're willing to allow it for you. Otherwise, I don't think you'll be able to.
