Hi folks -
I'm convinced that the venerable old CNN Breaking News script is broken. Perhaps CNN changed their format?
There was breaking news today around 2:46PM ("Father of Laura Hobbs... charged with murder..") The script saw nothing.
I have run the script in test and debug mode, and everything checks out perfectly. The log demonstrates that it is accessing and downloading the CNN.com home page.
I did not actually see the alert on the CNN page, but I received their email notification of same.
The script version of custom_cnn.txt is 2.3. I reloaded a new copy from the script library a few days ago just to be sure. I have verified that the ini parameters are correct.
Did anyone else actually retrieve/hear this alert?
Thanks,
Jerry
