repeated Httpservice to same url

[anotherDJ]

hey



i need to get data from a php generated xml page, i need to
do this repatedly because the page keeps changing. but the
Httpservice does not run on the same url over and over again. how
can i make it fetch the data repeatdly from the same url.



the code i have works everytime the url is changed even
slightly



thanks

I'm not sure if I fully understand your question. You need a
timer object to invoke the same url using HTTPService.send()
function on a regular time interval. Is that correct? If that is
the case, you need to look into AsyncToken class for tracking the
responses.

hey yang.. thanks alot for the response



well the calling the functions isn't the problem, i do that
buy having a refresh button that calls on the function. the
functions actually in an embedded module. i have it set to show
curser busy when ever the httpservice is running. the problem is
that if the url doesn’t change every time i've hit the
refresh button the cursor doesn’t go busy, so its not really
getting hte new data.



an example would be say the url thats created is
Http://www.google.ca/car.php?time=50num=7,
1st time its run.. the curser goes busy and i get the data, now if
i hit refresh .. nothing happens



so i'm just wondering is there some setting i need to enable
so that it goes to get data on any url.. not just when the url
changes. or is there a work around?





thanks alot
