<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>try putting a comma (,) between the 2 params.
Like so:
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>
Download( "My Http
Address/ACC.txt",
"c:\\mydata\\ACC.txt" );
<FONT face=Arial
color=#0000ff size=2>d

Re: [amibroker] how to? with script, download data from
web
Hi,
I had a similar problem and TJ gave me
this script, but there is a small prob which I have given at the end of
this messge,
URLGet is not a JScript
function. You can not type it directly in JScript. It is an
external program that you have to "run" from JScript via Run method
WshShell object,
as shown in the newsletter, <FONT
face=Arial size=2>that I pointed to you before: <A
href="">http://www.amibroker.com/newsletter/02-2001.html
/* first, create Shell object
that allows us to run external programs */WshShell = new
ActiveXObject( "WScript.Shell" );
/* this handy function takes
just URL and local file name and calls URLGet program to do the work
*/function Download(
URL, filename ){
if( WshShell.Run( "URLGet " + URL + " " +
filename, 0, true ) == 0 ) return true;
WScript.echo("Download of " + URL + " failed."
);
return false;
}
/* Now you can
use above function to download and store the file */
Download( "My Http Address/ACC.txt<FONT
size=3>" "c:\\mydata\\ACC.txt" );
But I still
have a small problem, When I run the script, nothing happens. What can be
the problem. I can download the file using URLget, but using this Script I
wanted to update the said file - I do not want to download the whole file
again and again. All ideas welcome since I badly have to use this
feature.
