[HELP] Searching program
ok so their is a task i want to acomplish which is to make a program to make a random search in a search engine heres the reason

its a site called goodsearch and it donates money to your school everytime you make a search but im not sure how i can make it work and the search can be mpgh if any. i know pretty basic stuff

Code:

if n=y
then 
display "starting"
after that i just want to make it do a few 100 searches can someone help

thanks!
Uhm, could you please explain this in another way to me? :^$
Maybe I can help ^^
sorry my english is crap i can't explain well
Seems to me, all he wants to do is funnel searches through goodsearch standard for the most part, the hardest will be the "unattended part" meaning you will have to create or download a large dictionary of words or phrases to pass along to the search.

Could you not use the link to a completed search (like what you do with google) and find where the search phrase is stored in the link? Then just remove that and tell it to add some random number.

[php]
Dim RandomSearch as integer = rnd() * 99999999
Dim newAddress As String = "http://www.google.com.au/#hl=en&source=hp&q=" & RandomSearch & "aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=&fp=104a5afaafafc4d "

Process.Start(newAddress)

[/php]

But of course not for google, I hope you get what I'm trying to say lol
Code:
http://www.google.com/search?&ie=UTF-8&q= & RandomSearch
(which is the actual url) That will work, but I assume that the searches would have to be less "random" and not frequent. When someone is giving away money to anything, you can be sure they are through. The outcome may be your school getting disqualified for "cheating" . there was a member here who I wrote a auto vote application for, it was for similar reasons. He got caught, school disqualified and he got in some trouble.
We didn't need the link , we get the idea.... Your not understanding my point.

You don't think for one second, that isn't enforced do you? I am not saying don't make the application. Just be smart about it................................


after this how can i make it repeat say until i hit s for stop?
some kind of if then statement?
Use a timer, When timer is On, it searches every X seconds, when timer is off it doesn't
if they have IP tracking you would in a little bit of a pickle thought. Proxies?
