Hi,

 

I've been trying to write a script to check a webpage for a certain word and then load another webpage if it is found or repeat the check until it is found. This is what I have so far, but its still not working, anyone have any advice as to where I am going wrong? The script isn't looping if the word is not found.

 

<?php

//check for initial text

$link = "https://mysite.com/text.php";

//run the link

$content = file_get_contents($link);

//The text on the page should say apples

$needle = "apples";

if (strpos($content, $needle) === false) {

//if it does not find the string, display the following

echo "found";

} else {

//else it found the string so proceed to the page

header("Location: next.php");

}

?>

Thanks!
