That didnt quite do what I wanted. Here's the scenario. My provider's website
gets updated daily, for the most part (weekdays that is), with a new file.
For now I am manually opening the page, selecting and downloading the file by
right-clicking the hyperlink and hitting 'Save Target As'. Once the site pops
up, a table is displayed with a list of hyperlinks - ones that were
previously added and 1 or more new ones. They are names with a date suffix so
I can determine what ones I already downloaded and what ones are new. I take
only new, in the fashion mentioned earlier.
Automation:
I'd like to be able to automate the process by
1. reading each hyperlink
2. based on the date part, determining whether it is new or old (this
step I am competent to handle)
3. Downloading the data that each new link links to.
Any known APIs that will handle steps 1 and 3?
Thanks
