Hello Forum....
now i've been a user of the forum for a while, and indeed it's always been helpful, but i'm now stuck on something very basic... and need a hand
below is some modified code (taken from the examples)
and the main bit works fine.... (the GET / ts.php?tagid= ...... etc...
but it only happens once... (and also it's getting the webpage responce a letter at a time... ???? )
so i want to loop the client GET every 10 mins maybe...
what am i doing wrong...
