View Full Version : Wish: Scheduling options for pages Agrajag 11-19-2002, 11:09 PM I'd love to have the ability, within Properties of each document, to set the schedule for Converting. For some items I'd set them to convert every time, for others, only if the doc has changed, others every Wednesday, some once a month, etc. saw9000 11-25-2002, 09:50 PM Very good idea. I have some pages that only get updated once a week, and it would be nice to be able to use the refresh all button daily without having to specifically exclude the ones I know haven't been updated. Scott Agrajag 11-26-2002, 10:59 PM Exactly. I have quite a few. This utility is on its way to being THE definitive Palm app. It's gaining polish with every release. These sorts of things will put it right at the top. saw9000 11-26-2002, 11:18 PM Indeed, it's the small things that separate the useful from the truly amazing. Scott bdjmobile 02-14-2003, 10:44 AM I'd like to see this as well - perhaps an option that says "don't convert if last conversion is less than x hours/days old". cliegrrl 02-14-2003, 09:54 PM Would it be possible to have iSiloXC run two completely different xml files? One on a daily schedule & one on a weekly? That would be nice. Or maybe even three different ones . . . have one that runs monthly . . . Has anybody tried this?? Sounds like a 'Saturday Experiemnt'. captainao 02-15-2003, 11:10 AM Yes, you can set up as many files as you want to run with isiloxc. If you look at the docs, one of the variables that it takes is filename. I have a few different runs of isiloxc scheduled - one in the morning to get the stuff that only changes daily, and another for cnn to be updated hourly cliegrrl 02-15-2003, 10:33 PM Originally posted by captainao@Feb 15 2003, 10:10 AM Yes, you can set up as many files as you want to run with isiloxc.

It's snowing/sleeting here . . . supposed to go overnight, so maybe I'll work with it tomorrow. There are a couple sites I grab that are only updated once a week . . . like The New York Times Magazine. No need to hassle with those every day. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP! ;) |
