Hello everybody,
i have a script that goes to one website of mine, checks if there is a code available(using urllib2), then, by using wxpython prints the code availability status.
Is there any way i can make my program research for a code every five minutes, then update the text printed on the screen? this program intended to be run in the background.
Also, if it finds a code, if i could make it to ring that would be great.
If it'll help, here is my program's source code.
Thanks for trying to help me, I have some people waiting on me for this project and I'd like to complete it as soon as possible!
