Hi Folks

There are a few sites which I look at a lot, and what I want to do is make
sure the cached version is updated on a regular basis even if I do not
expliclty look at the site with a browser  So I want squid look up the site
every 10 mins.  I was thinking of simply doing something like this in a
script file

lynx http://www.smh.com.au
http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/
lynx http://news.bbc.co.uk

and just making the script file run every 10 mins.  But this looks a bit
dodgy doing this, and lynx will not download the pictures(??).  Is there a
better way?

Thanks

Tony
