Hi List, I would like to write a script that somehow gets a text only output of a webpage - can lynx do this ? Then grep the output for a desired string of text - then somehow pass the result to an if command so that if the string is found - lauch this and if not then loop...
Can this be done ?
You may wish to use the wget command line utility in combination with grep in order to achieve this:
wget http://server.org/page.html | grep "my text" page.html
The actual script will probably need to be a bit smarter.
