Did I remember reading somewhere that you guys are monitoring the change date/file size on one of the underlying files to see when a change happens? At one point I was tracking the actual flash file itself, but the data is all external correct?

STUTTGART/PARIS

and STUTTGART/BERLIN

have been found.
I must have had a problem with the distance. I kept landing in the water instead of Paris.

yeah, when loading the puter, I recorded all the urls that are called, and wrote a little script that notifies when there's an update. Similar format to the collage on thelostring.com - a call to a url that retrieves data for displaying the content; the puter data isn't plan xml though.
But when it (or anything) changes, I've got a script that txt's my cell Razz

used the same technique for a couple other previous args. Very handy!

I wound up buying a website monitor program when we were doing Occular Effect, so I've got a similar thing.. its not tied to my cell phone of course, but I can monitor the files for changes. Can you pm me the filelist at some point in the future? No rush...

 		just use the website for a while, keep the browser open, and check the url list by most recently accessed in your temporary internet file folder (and/or cache, if you're not using IE)
If you still really want I can pm you the url list I'm tracking, but it's all available in the cache.
