Checking for updates

Hello, I have a question for you all.

Is there a way to make a script check a version number (let's say it's from mywebsite.com/version.txt) and compare it to a variable in the script (let's say that it's $myversion = "2.0"), then have a dialog box come up if there is a newer version online?

Something like this?

;you may want this at the start of the script.

Local $currentver = "1"

InetGet ("mywebsite.com/version.txt",@ScriptDir & "\version.txt")
$latestver = FileRead(@ScriptDir & "\version.txt")
FileDelete(@ScriptDir & "\version.txt")
If $latestver > $currentver Then _downloadnewver()

Func _downloadnewver()
    ;insert script here
EndFunc

Yes, that'll work great! Thank you
