Description:
Note: the program design/options described below are not absolute if you have better or timesaving ideas.
I need a program that monitors a list of urls (see if they're responding). The program should do the following:
1) Detect webpage size changes greater than a variable number of bytes. For example, if user enters 20, and the webpage size increases or decreases by more than 20 bytes from one period to the next, then a change is detected.
OR
2) Detect whether a text string (defined by the user) is present on the page.
Whenever a page is checked, a log file entry is made with the results. If a change is detected, there is an option for the program to send an email notification.
Columns should include: URL to monitor / last checked time / last change time / time interval setting / monitor method: size change or check for text string / monitor setting: max bytes or the text string / alert method: log only or mailto address / error options
The error options should allow user to temporarily change checking interval if page is unavailable.
Email alerts should have subject "Change detected: url here" and the previous and current byte size in the body of the email.
Deliverables: 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done.
2) Installation package that will install the software (in ready-to-run condition) on the platform(s) specified in this bid request.
3) Complete ownership and distribution copyrights to all work purchased.
4) Manual installation instructions so that buyer can repackage the software with any setup/installation package.
Platform:
Windows 98, ME, 2K, XP
Special Conditions / Other:
Must be completed within 14 days of bid acceptance.
Remember that contacting the other party outside of the site (by email, phone, etc.) on all business projects < $500 (before the buyer's money is escrowed) is a violation of both the software buyer and seller agreements.
We monitor all site activity for such violations and can instantly expel transgressers on the spot, so we thank you in advance for your cooperation.
If you notice a violation please help out the site and report it. Thanks for your help.
