Searching Script

Hey guys, I know very little java I took AP computer science in high school and have since forgotten most of it. I'm trying to write a code that :
What I'm trying to do is have a script that loads a website such as

http://www.anywebsite.com/showthread.php?t=000001
and searches for a couple strings of words then if the strings aren't found
it searches the next one, =000002, If it finds the strings that are required
it would save the link or keep the page open and stop searching.
I'm honestly not sure where to start so I came looking for a little bit of a
shove in the right direction. Anybody with any ideas would be really
appreciated.

Thanks
-Tim

This is the javaSCRIPT forum. You can't do what you want in JavaScript (you can't load data from another site with JS), so I suspect you really do mean you want to use JAVA. About the only thing the two languages share are the first four letters of their names.

are you trying to implement pattern search?

I think you might want to install the add-on "Greasemonkey" for Firefox and start learning to use userscripts. You can do those kind of things with Greasemonkey easily.

Example for a userscript

// ==UserScript==
// @name Test for CF
// @namespace http://userscripts.org/users
// @description Test for CF
// @include http://www.anywebsite.com/showthread.php?t=*
// ==/UserScript==

// The header tells Greasemonkey on which pages it should run
// The code below will run as soon as the page has been loaded, no need for onload here

// customize wordlist here
var wordlist = ["word1", "word2"];
var found = true;
var source = document.body.innerText;

for(i=0; i<wordlist.length; i++) {
if(source.indexOf(wordlist[i]) == -1) {
// one of the words was not found
found = false;
break;
}
}

if(!found) {
// if at least one of the words was not found, go to next page
// first extract the number
var theHref = window.location.href;
var theNextNumber = Number(theHref.substring(theHref.length-6))+1;
theNextNumber = '000000' + theNextNumber;
window.location.href = theHref.substring(0, theHref.length-6)+theNextNumber.substring(theNextNumber.length-6);
}
