Re: Boring "URLDownloadToFile_" problem solved

Yeah, I got it. Now work's perfect. Thanks for help :lol:
I used it like that:

Code: Select all

url$="http://yoursite.com/webcam/image.jpg?dummy="+ Str(ElapsedMilliseconds())
and the cache problem is solved.

Only for my understanding, for what is this "?dummy" in the IE used?

Reliable download function missing

The current used windows API function "URLDownloadToFile_()" is not system independent
and not working properly.

ReceiveHTTPFile(URL$, Dateiname$) is also very limited and cannot handle URL's with password.

A function in native PB would be helpful to securily download files from the net.
