Jwebmon - Website Monitor / News: Recent posts

Developement on this project ended some time ago. The rise of RSS feeds has made it much useful.

I have updated the CVS archive to reflect changes I have been making on my home machine (I've been having some internet problems lately.) The version in CVS is more or less functional, though it is still rough and not feature complete. The easiest way to try it is to run 'ant test' from the main 'jwebmon' directory.

I hope to add a BeanShell based scripting language at some point to allow users to program relatively simple checks if they want (perhaps a simple regex for the last date on the page for example.) That is still a ways off however.

I have a 'working' version, but it's functionality is not what I would like. I am going to be rewriting the update checking code with the HttpClient from the Apache Jakarta project instead of the default Java version. It will allow for more functionality such as secure connections, and logins to sites, etc.
