Hi,

I’m trying to build a web application to search web and store the  
results onto my application database. Here’s my screen flow:  
Screen 1 - User can search by keyword, then click “Search”.  
Screen 2 - The page returns the search result in list. User clicks on  
one of the result link to move to the next screen.  
Screen 3 - The page shows individual result which user clicked. When  
user clicks on “Add” button, the information will be stored on my  
application database.

In order to save another access to web to retrieve info to store  
database, I serialized information with YAML behind html. Is that the  
right approach? Or any other standard approach to save such another  
web access?

I came up with this question as the search result includes hash  
result, and the hash result seems not working well when I deserialize  
via YAML. It lost the original structure of hash.

Regards,  
Ryo
