The easiest way would probably be to look at the code for a script that does exactly what you want to do.

title Update Panel
size -1 -1 400 500
button "Ok" ,1, 0 475 75 25,ok
button "Clear" ,3, 75 475 75 25
Edit "" ,2, 5 3 390 470,read,multi

/did -ra update 2 $dname $read(http://www.area51script.fairmount.nu/update.txt)

I tried to find the scripts that did the updates I found one but it was done in a dll file and I don't know how to work with dll files

We cannot write a script for you however, best place to start would be..
/help Sockets
/help /sockwrite
/help /sockaccept
/help /sockopen
/help /sockclose
/help /sockmark
/help /socklis
/help /sockrename
and the events..
on SOCKCLOSE
on SOCKOPEN
on SOCKLISTEN
on SOCKREAD
on SOCKWRITE
As for the buttons, I assume you meant dialogs..
dialog updates.script {
title "Updates script!"
size -1 -1 110 100
option dbu
button "Get updates!", 1, 30 50 50 24, ok tab 1
}
on 1:dialog:updates.script:sclick:1: {
/help Sockets
}
on 1:dialog:updates.script:init:*: {
echo -a What commands you want to perform before dialog opens
}
For more information
/help Dialogs
/help on Dialog
/help /Did
/help /Didtok
I hope this helps you in some way.

You need to use sockets to read from a website. Look at my first post.. There are some great tutorials Here, Here and Here.

dont get me wrong you need to learn sockets but mess with this:
on 1:SOCKOPEN:ver: {
if ($sockerr > 0) return
sockwrite -n $sockname GET /version.txt HTTP/1.1
sockwrite -n $sockname Host: host.com
sockwrite -n $sockname Connection: keep-alive
sockwrite $sockname $crlf
if ($isFile(data.txt)) .remote data.txt
}
on 1:SOCKREAD:ver: {
sockread -f &data
bwrite data.txt -1 -1 &data
; speeds up things so we dont have to wait for the socket to close..
.timerver 1 1 siver.close
}
alias ver.close {
if ($isFile(data.txt)) {
var %lastline = $read(data.txt, $lines(data.txt))
.remove data.txt
}
else var %lastline = Could not download file.
did -ra versioncheck 1 %lastline
}
alias checkver { sockopen ver host.com 80 }

you have to customise the did -ra versioncheck 1 statement
you butchered the code, use the last example i gave you and just change the did part

If your dialog is called update, why are you trying to use /did on a dialog called versioncheck?

this person doesnt seem to have much experience in scriping(sorry if i thought wrong), so please remove the [code ] and [/code ] tags, as they cause an odd problem with the lines and brackets.

that isnt hard to understand for me, but like i said: if he doesnt have much experience with dialogs then how do you expect him to correct that error, codemaster's right you are rude, you posted that before you even knew what i was talking about.

I just read all that, and all i have to say is holy crap.
Everyone gets mad for posting untested code, and I had to have seen 10 version of code "well try this one.." "Ohh, well you need to do this one..." "This should work.."
*sigh*
