Windows 7 - Automatically Save a Web Page every half hour?

Automatically Save a Web Page every half hour?

I KNOW it can be done. They did it here: Solved: Automatic information saver - Page 3 - Tech Support Guy Forums

However, I cannot get this to work. And it is exactly what I am trying to do: copy muzak playlists to notepad every half hour.

I have no way of contacting the person because of restrictions on the thread and I am not allowed to PM.

Can anyone help?

Did you read through the entire thred, starting on page 1? All the info is in there, including download and install of AutoHotKey.

If it were me though, I'd use Wget and a batch file to read the web pages every so often. Wget is extreamly powerful and will take some time to learn but you can do amazing things with it.

I would love to get into wget but I just don't have the time. Sure, I could learn, but for what? Just a way to save web pages every 30 minutes? Seems like a small gain for a lot of work.

I did read through the thread but for some reason nothing happened when I ran the script.

Check out Scrap Book if you are using FF.

I don't use it but there might be a way to have it automatically save a site after a given period of time if you converse with the developer of the add-on.
