How to connect to a website? / Version Compare
 

Hi there,

Well i've registered me 2... never thought it gonna to happen ;)

I have read and looked and searched the web... BUT!... couldn't find the answer...

I am working now a few months with NSIS.. ( and Eclipse! ) and i must say... love it!


But.. i have to post a question.. because i couldn't find the answer.

I have multiple EXE files...
File1.exe = very much images
File2.exe = something else (like webshop information)


Now i must compile every EXE file again, when i "upgrade" it.. and place it online...

I thought it was the best way.. to use VersionCompare... but.. How does it work?

Or is it better to make a update program / patch program?
So.. i have in the Tray of windows a very tiny program.. that will check online if there is a new version?

(I even looked at PHPECLIPSE ) but couldn't find the answer..

I tried to make a cookie with NSIS.. but even that didn't work out...(then i can check online if cookie exists)

...anyway... how does it work?
I'm not lazy :) i will do my homework.. but i need help to get further...

OR i must do something like version control... and look for updates? ( please explain how it works )

OR i must open the browser with a link, for examples:
domain.com/checkversion.php?version=1.0.0

Then i can write a php script on my website.. who will select the other updates for me... (PHP is better to write then NSIS ;) )

Please help me with a solution...

your explanation are rather obscure...

can you just explain simply the context and what you try to achieve ?
