Chobyhy Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I'm just wondering, is it possible for autoit to access a txt file on the internet to check for a line in the file? Something similar to how it can read variables off config file, I was wondering if it can read it off file thats online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gvus Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 yes it is InetGet () download to temp dir and file read. There is one i made that reads direct from internet but don't remember what all it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tAKTelapis Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Would it not work better to do make it a html file, and run an inetgetsource() ? That way, the user will possibly never see the contents of the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vindicator209 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 (edited) ahh, heres a clip from one of my scripts: $version= 2.8 InetGet("Http://URLREMOVED/vers.txt","vers.txt") If Not FileReadLine("vers.txt",1) = $version Then MsgBox(0,"Outdated","New Version Required") Exit EndIf $version : Declared the versoin of the script INETGET : Host a txt file somewhere on the internet with the version number, this function will dowlad it and check if they match =P Hope I helped. ~Cheers Edited June 6, 2007 by MethodZero [center]"When you look at old, classic games like Snake, you often put it off because it's such a simple game, but it's only when you actually try and create your own unique game from scratch, do you finally appreciate those games."[/center][center]Don't ask for answers if you haven't TRIED yet![/center][center]Most answers can be answered in the help file!

gvus Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Yes _INetGetSource ( $s_URL ) How i did was set the file as ver.txt and in the file would be the version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chobyhy Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 Would it not work better to do make it a html file, and run an inetgetsource() ?That way, the user will possibly never see the contents of the file.So instead of using txt file, use the inetgetsource() to hide the file and the content from the public? If I used this, would the url and the file location be hidden as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
