I have seen in other scripts where u can click on a button in the script and it will ckeck to see if there are updates. How would i go about makeing something like this. I have tried somethings but it did not work Like I tried to uplaod a text file to my web hosting and then i tried to have my script read that text file to tell it what it says in the text file but i could not get it to work any help would be great for this

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

here is what i tried and it does not work
Code:
 
dialog update {
  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
}
on *:dialog:update:sclick:3:{
  /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..
Code:
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. grin

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:
Code:

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?

make sure the dialog is opened first!!!!
Code:
alias checkver { sockopen ver area51script.fairmount.nu 80 }
on 1:SOCKOPEN:ver: {
  if ($sockerr > 0) return
  sockwrite -n $sockname GET /update.txt HTTP/1.1
  sockwrite -n $sockname Host: area51script.fairmount.nu
  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 update 2 %lastline
}

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.
