How do you access a website, ie refresh it
Nov 3rd, 2009, 8:02pm
 
Hello,

I am needing help in coding a simple way for processing to access a web address and by doing so refreshing it.  Is this possible?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

I am not sure if i understand. What do you mean by access
Do you need to show it what should be refreshed

Marius once posted about his processing webbrowser, maybe that is what you need. http://processing.org/discourse/yabb2/num_1188492085.html

The accessing part sounds like link:

Also confused about the refreshing bit, though.

Hello again,

Sorry for the confusion.  Link works! but it opens a web browser, something I don't want.

What I have going on is that I have processing code that interacts with a web script (.php) via EEML.  That web script either says "ON" or "OFF" when it is refreshed.  This turns the processing script on and off.  Is there a way for the processing code to access the web .php but not open up a web browser?  Any help would be much appreciated.  Thanks!
