is it possible to make your autoit script read a .txt file from a website? I tried, but I was unsuccessful lol, just checking up on it

Download it with InetGet(), then read it.

THis may help: http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/f...ns/FileRead.htm

But you will want to use an IE function, use the serch for that...

EDIT: MHz That would be wiser yes, i was gona say use both functions together... but that woud be harder

just a tester, it keeps bots off the site lol

when I open it, it has boxes, would autoit be able to know the boxes are {ENTER}'s?

The file may only have line endings of LF's or CR's that may explain the boxes, but Windows uses CRLF's so try a stringReplace() on the contents of the read file into a variable.

$variable = StringReplace($variable, @LF, @CRLF)
