As I'm sure you all know, there's no RSS functionality on this forum. So basically, what I was wondering is - is there some sort of script, or something, that can be ran continuously in the background, that would notify the user of the creation of a new thread in a forum?
I don't really know how it would work - but I suppose one way would be to retrieve the web page source of the relevant forum, arranged by thread start time, and cross-reference a section of it with a previous copy, and if that identifies a difference in the 'newest' thread then to pop up a notification? Would that even be feasible?
Cheers
