Errr Ill try not to get confusing.

I need a program to scan a page for a icon. A picture*.

The webpage is already set to refresh every 60seconds. So i just need a program to BEEP If something on this webpage changes.

Or a program that can read the source code of a website every 60seconds (Or 300, anything under5mins would be ok). And beep if the image is on that page?

Understanding me yet?

soo a program to detect if a command appears in source code, or to beep if an image appears on a webpage :/.
*_*. Yea, or run a shell command to some music.. Or just do anything to get my attention heh.

Any help from ppl would be nice,

You do confuse me sometimes Samuel... "I need a webpage to make money...", "Techniques for oral self grati...", "I need a program to monitor a page for changes" all out of the blue. I just hope these are all unrelated and you're not setting up some twisted webcam site to pay for your student days

Ah, what the hell... here! http://exl.nskill.co.uk/panthoping.rar

Be warned, some webmaster and server operators could view scanning as a hacking attempt, which could lead to your IP being blocked.

didnt know that brammers.

lol StevenJ, the Clicking thing was for a friends scheme.. kinda, he wanted it inside a DoD:S server's motd.

Meaning 3k unique clicks, to pay for his server. Not sure if he found one, The self oral thing was a joke. A foul one, but a joke non the less.

And this is just for making a complicated alarm clock. When somet happens on a webpage.

Its shiny stevenj, but wont work :/

Not even with any website.. hmm

Works when I tested it I'll PM you details on how to use it later, but for now I have to go out. I think I should prob change it - right now it reads once per 2 minutes, but I should change that to a random period between 2 and 5 minutes. It does check for robots.txt to (rather cheekily) verify it's allowed to do this

Some sites do block programs scraping their content too, and the way that's threaded means any errors will just stop the program checking...

I hate you Pantho

i love you to baby .

As random as that was *_*

uhh....

wget url > cat | grep whatever

no one find a way of doing this effectively and easilly please... i found the most complicated way of doing it so lets not show me up now

if anyone does find a way could you make it play a custom wav or mp3 file else i might go insane if this alarm is an annoying sound

lol Voodoo needs it for same reasons as me .
