About the WWW Agent

Download WEBAGENT

The Web-agent application can monitor given WEB sites and download the content to your hard disk if anything changes. You can also be notified by E-mail if you like. It is quite a useful tool if you don't want to visit the same homepage over and over again to see if its content has changed. The source code is supplied with an example, so you can examine how to develop web-applications in Visual Prolog.

To use the program, unzip it and double-click on the application-icon. In the address-columns, type in URLs. Then, in the timer-columns, type in how often these homepages should be checked for change of contents (in minutes). In the Entry Settings, you can specify which person should be e-mailed about changes.

It is necessary to set the options by clicking on the Options-button. Here, you specify the proxy-setting (if any), the resultfile, and which browser to use with the Web-agent.

When all this is done, you can just sit back and wait, or you can push the View Results button to see the homepages that have been  downloaded.

The above file contains the source code. The executable version is in the EXE directory.
Note that a few features are only available when running the WinNT OS.
