I need a php script which will automatically visit the URLs. The script may have a 'textarea' or it may work with an external .txt file to retrieve the URLs that it will visit. The script should allow the user to reset how long the browser will stay at each site before moving to the next site. (preferably in second units) In sum, the user will just launch this .php page in a browser, and the browser will keep visiting the sites (listed in the 'textarea' or the external .txt file). Thanks! |

PHP is not terribly relevant to this....You could easily create this with a couple frames and some javascript. |

If you think you can get it to work with .js with no problems, you are more than welcome to do so.. |

This could be done with PHP. So to clear up....you want to physically SEE these pages as they are coming up or do you just want something done with the text on from the pages? Do you want anything else done with this? Like do you just want the contents of the pages e-mailed to you or would you like to for example visit ebay for 60 seconds, then google for 93 seconds and then yahoo for 380 seconds? Please clarify when you have time and I will write the script for you. |

No emails or anything similar is necessary. In addition, the visit time for each page will be the same. I just want to run the script, and watch it move from page to page every, shall we say, 30 seconds. Please do not hesitate to ask if you have other questions in mind. Thanks. |

Here it's a javascript example, without input fields validation. So
take care at what you fill in.
If you need something else don't hesitate to ask me.
<html>
<head>
<title>For neutral-ga</title>
<script language="javascript">
var urls;
var order = 0;
var mywin;
function rotate()
{
if( order < urls.length - 1 )
order++;
else
order = 0;
mywin.location = urls[order];
setTimeout('rotate();', document.getElementById("time").value*1000);
}
function init()
{
if( document.getElementById("urls").value.length != 0 )
{
urls = document.getElementById("urls").value.split(",");
mywin = window.open(urls[0], '87931', 'width=' +
screen.availWidth + ', height=' + screen.availHeight + ', screenX=0,
left=0, screenY=0, top=0, toolbar=1, scrollbars=1, location=1,
status=1, menubar=1, resizable=1');
mywin.focus();
setTimeout('rotate();', document.getElementById("time").value*1000);
}
else
{
alert("No url's here");
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
URL's: <textarea id="urls" name="urls" rows="5"
cols="40"></textarea> (Comma Separated Variable format with full url,
like '://www.google.com/')<br>
Time: <input type="text" id="time" name="time"> (seconds)<br>
<input type="button" value="Visit" onclick="init();">
</body>
</html>
Best regards

I don't know why I cannot get it to work. Can you please post a sample textarea content just to make sure that I am not making a mistake there. Thanks. |

The problem it's the google word wrap. The lines from the above example: mywin = window.open(urls[0], '87931', 'width=' + screen.availWidth + ', height=' + screen.availHeight + ', screenX=0, left=0, screenY=0, top=0, toolbar=1, scrollbars=1, location=1,status=1, menubar=1, resizable=1'); must be one single line of code. So, copy & paste my example in Notepad, and just make the above lines of code to be one. Save as html file and will work. Best regards Tely |
