Perhaps I did not explain it very well.<br> What I meant was with python it is possible to create a program that creates a .txt file with various
values automically. Is it possible to send values to a web site automatically.<br> (Eg if every day your train is late how would you create a program to complain for you on this page http://www.southwesttrains.co.uk/SWTrains/Customerservice/_Contact+form.htm).<br> <br> I think what Michael suggested is correct. I will have a look when I am better (I am suffering from the flu).<br> Thanks again everyone.<br><BR><BR>------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br> First they came for the Danes, but I did not speak out because I am not a Dane.<br><p>
