.Net Tracking Shipments

Question

I have a situtation where a user will enter in a tracking number and i need to be able to figure out which company it was shipped from (UPS, FedEX, USPS, DHL) and then pass back a url that they can click on and send them to the right website. Any suggestions?

Thanks Erik

Use Google:

Make a call to Google like http://www.google.com/?q=[trackingNumber] and parse the response. You may even find a JSON/XML API for this.

That's a pretty expensive way of doing it, considering he just wants to display a link. – Spencer Hakim Nov 23 '10 at 19:01
