Applescript to open webpage from list, search for "text"
hi guys, its me, doritos guy, I've laid off of the doritos for a while, twas given me stomach problems. you know when you eat 10 family size bags a day it might cause a problem, any-who

i appreciated the help from last time when i was trying to script something, now i just have to try to understand some hebrew lettering and sounds for phase 2 of that project.



i know it would be a combination of these two other discussions

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6489693 (i got this one to work for me)
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3122504

basically something like this


Open webpages one at a time from list in txt file
when webpage is loaded, then search for "text"
if "text" is not found
then
close tab, open next URL in list
if "text" is found
then
copy URL to a text file or alert somehow.
once url is copied and saved
then
close tab, open next url in list
repeat

this is what i pieced together from these links


Code:
on run {input, parameters}  
     read (item 1 of input)  
     set ps to paragraphs of the result  
     set tot to count ps  
     tell application "Safari"  
          reopen  
          activate  
     end tell  
     repeat with i from 1 to tot  
          set p to item i of ps  
          if p is not "" then  
               try  
                    tell application "Safari"  
                         tell front window  
                              set r to make new tab with properties {URL:p}  
                              set current tab to r  
                              delay 1  
                              if i = tot then exit repeat  
                              repeat  
                                   delay 1  

if text in webpage contains "search text" then
                              copy URL to text file
                    end if
if text in webpage does not contain "search text" then
close tab





                                   get URL of r  
                              end repeat  
                         end tell  
                    end tell  
             end try  
          end if  
     end repeat  
end run

HOBBITWEB(5)							File Formats Manual						      HOBBITWEB(5)

NAME

       Xymon web page headers, footers and forms.

DESCRIPTION

       The  Xymon  webpages  are  somewhat  customizable, by modifying the header- and footer-templates found in the ~xymon/server/web/ directory.
       There are usually two or more files for a webpage: A template_header file which is the header for this webpage, and a template_footer  file
       which is the footer.  Webpages where entry forms are used have a template_form file which is the data-entry form.

       With  the  exception of the bulletin files, the header files are inserted into the HTML code at the very beginning and the footer files are
       inserted at the bottom.

       The following templates are available:

       bulletin
	      A bulletin_header and bulletin_footer is not shipped with Xymon, but if they exist then the content of these files will be  inserted
	      in  all  HTML  documents generated by Xymon. The "bulletin_header" contents will appear after the normal header for the webpage, and
	      the "bulletin_footer" will appear just before the normal footer for the webpage. These files can be used to post important  informa-
	      tion about the Xymon system, e.g. to notify users of current operational or monitoring problems.
