51652 VB Application

Must be written in VB 6.0 The software will have the following Objects 1. Script URL ======= A text box to enter the URL to the script 2. File Name Frame ============ It will have two option (radio) buttons. 1st Option: Text box to enter the file name This will have a Browse button next to it in order to grab a file from the local computer 2nd Option: Use default file 3. Start, Stop, Pause and Resume Buttons ========================== 4. A list view with two columns (see below) =========================== The user will enter the the URL to the script file in the Script URL field. The software will submit two parameters to that URL using GET method. The first parameter's name is url and the second parameter's name is cat. How to Obtain the 1st Parameter Value (url=): ============================== The value for the url parameter will be obtained from the file given in the File Name Frame. If the user chooses to enter its own file name then use that, else use the default file supplied. The file has to contain a list of URLs. Each of this URL will be posted to the script with url="url obtained from the file". Sample File Contents: [login to view URL] [login to view URL] [login to view URL] [login to view URL] How to Obtain the 2nd Parameter Value (cat=): ============================== Now the second parameter value is a little tricky. Each and every URL in the file will be pointing to a .xml file as mentioned above in the Sample File Contents. The software will have to access the .xml file and then figure out the cat= parameter value from the data in the file using the algorithm below: Alogrithm to find out cat= value: 1. If Program_Category_Class tag is present in the .xml file contents then the value written in between Program_Category_Class and /Program_Category_Class is the cat= value Else 2. If Program_Categories tag is present in the .xml file then read whatever is in between Program_Categories and Program_Categories and then for every phrase (separated by commas or spaces) try to match it against the list of categories provided in the attached file category2.txt. Whereever it matches use the value from the [login to view URL] file as the cat= value. 3. If there is no match then read the tag Program_Specific_Category. The [login to view URL] file has categories in the following format: Main Category::Sub category Match the Program_Specific_Category tag value that you just read against the Main Category in the [login to view URL] file and choose the corresponding default cateogry as the value for cat parameter. (see [login to view URL] file) Once the cat= and url= values are determined for a given .xml url from the file then these values should be submitted to the script using GET method. The software should do this for every .xml URL provided in the file. The list view should show the progress. In first column it should show the .xml URL being processed and in the second column it should show the status, such as Reading, Matching Category, Submitting, Done. That's it. It is fairly simple.
