Solve : newbie question?

Answer»

Hi

I am new here and recently I started discovering how to write batch files/commands. All the KNOWLEDGE I have is from the XP Help and Support.

I need some help or advice on my next batch file. I am trying to open three url adresses that has LOGS that run on each constantly and from the logs I would like to select a key word that will CREATE a pop up message displaying the line in which the keyword was found.

So far I succeeded in opening the three url's with below batch:
@echo off
:start
color f0
start grass.url
start pos.url
start ded.url
exit

Hope this is possible.
Thanks in advanceWhat do you want to LOG?

Do you mean you want to browse the web page and be alerted when a word APPEARS on it?Quote from: foxidrive on October 04, 2012, 04:59:20 AM

YesMaybe there is an addin for Firefox which can help you - batch files can't do that.You can use WGET to download a web page and check the raw web page for a keyword, and have it beep to alert you, but it does not involve a web browser that you are using at the time.Thanks for the replies.
