Scanning a web page
-
I need to monitor a web page open in my browser and click a 'button' every x minutes, and if the page has changed, to pop up an alert. I have no idea if this is possible and would appreciate anyone's suggestions as to how this might be achieved. I am experienced in VB, and can understand C#. It would not be a problem if the program had to open the web page in a browser control within the program. Thanks.

It could be possible with the web browser control. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/2te2y1x6.aspx[^] pseduo code fetch page -> store source code Timer ticks off and triggers event fetch page -> store source code compare previous code to new code; if different do something
Just because we can; does not mean we should.
