Market scanning

I'm looking to write a script that scans the market using the IGB and javascript similar to eve-marketdata.com's scanner. However, I want to be able to skip a scan if there are no orders in the region. Essentially, I want the list of items present when the "Show Only Available" is checked in the market window.

Is this at all possible or do i need to needlessly iterate through items with no orders?

You need to iterate through everything

The only way to know if there are no orders in a region, is to actually look at them. From a Javascript perspective.

Woo! CSM XI!

I was afraid of that...
