Monitor webpages

Post by Genesis »

It would be nice to able to monitor webpages and bind actions to them when they change.

Monitor webpages

Post by God. »

To implement this idea with minimal effort, may I suggest an existing Action be modified and a new Action be added as follows:

It might be possible to create a new function "HTTP GET" which attempts to read a webpage and return two variables, "STATUS" (numeric) and "DATA" (string). By using a checkbox, the DATA string could take one of two formats, "RAW" or "HASH".

It might also be possible to modify the existing "IF THEN" function to perform at least two additional tests, "CONTAINS" and "DOES NOT CONTAIN".

Please let me know if further details of this implementation would be appreciated here.

Once again many thanks for a great program!!!
