Title: help required
Post by: kasperl on April 28, 2004, 10:36:59 am

ok, i am trying to pass the year by using old exams to train myself. So far, so good. A website, //www.eindaxemenbundel.nl sells, and puts on the web, all the old exams. The problem is, the books take 3 or more working days to deliver, and today and tommorow are the last working days before i go to a camp thingy to train. Now, i can keep clicking links till i die, but it is getting annyoing that most files have identical filenames and **** like that. it won't allow me to view a page with all the hyperlinks to all the files on it, so i've been wondering if someone has a program that simply works it's way through a site, and downloads any file with a certain string in it and a pdf extension. it will also need to rename the downloaded files, because of all the identical filenames.

I will be very, very happy if someone can hack something quick together, or point me in the right direction for a program.

www.download.com

Do a search.  For example, this
http://download.com.com/3000-2377-10226367.html?tag=lst-0-1
looks promising.

i'll try that, but in the time it took you to post it, i think i both got most of the site, and a ugly case of RSI.
