Automate page download

[TimTDP]

I need to save a web page every Sunday.
Is there a method that I can adopt to do this automatically? I use Firefox, but also have IE
Or do I need to write something in Visual Basic?

I know there is a site that can send you an email with a screenshot of a certain website.

That should work.

Give a minute or so. I'll try and find it.

One located at http://web4w3.com/web2email.html
and other one at http://www.emailtheweb.com/

Try and find one that allows you to email them, they will then email the page back.

The email you send them can then be automated...

You send an email to www@web2mail.com
subject = webpage that you want to see....

Will that do the trick?

Awesome, wish those guys existed a few years ago when the only website I could view was google and google groups. So imagine how much fun it was trying to get a solution for a problem if ALL OTHER WEBSITES were blocked. Fun times

wait a minute...

one can receive e-mail when your international usage is up on ADSL, right? ...even if it's from an international source..

might be a good idea to use this with failblog, etc, etc when your cap is running out ?

If your mail server is locally yes. Otherwise (if its like mine which is international) no.

I have a product that you can use, if you email me I'll send you a free complimentary license. You can view it on www.ernicsoftware.com

It's perfect to automate things like this.
