[giganut 109]

Hello everyone, is there a tool out there that can monitor website source code changes, not just a tool to monitor the sites content but to detect when the site has modifyed there pages source code only. Hope thats clear and thank you in advance for your replys.

could always grab entire source of page (read file (link to page))

 

then check it again same way

 

if(compare(old == new) than set same else set different

Thats a good Ideal, but I'm not sure if that would work for huge sites unless I used an offline ripper to get all the source.

Prolly same as above but this is what I was thinking...

 

check MD5 of whatever old vs new.

you can use

 

$read file (url)
navigate to site, then use $document text
socket get source

 

or can use plugins http post/get

 

 

save directly to file so as to not use variables or lists.

 

then can compare with using read file instead of having to load in all the html

Thanks TC, and TJ I will give both a try and see what I can come up with.
