I'm looking to run a program in which users may register their email address which will notify them of any page updates (of a selectable list of files I decide). Similar to "Page last Updated via email".

Can anyone help?

Thank you in advance!

Please remove -NOSPAM- from the above address for email correspondance!

Don't know of any custom scripts that will do this, but what you would have to do is the following:

1) Create two database files or two tables in a SQL database storage app, like MySQL, with the following columns/fields:

Users

UserID
Username
Password

Check_Pages

UserID
File_Location

2) Then use File.pm to check the modified date by the File_Location.

3) Then write a SENDMAIL sub that checks the USER database against the USERID in the other database and the File_Location field.

Eliot, thanks so much for the explanation, however, I couldn't begin to implement such a program. I was actually looking for what Bob has posted! That is just what I'm looking for Bob, thank you.

I tried accessing that link and got DNS Entry Error in Netscape and Page Not Displayed in IE.

Is that the correct web address???
