Hi,I am working on a search for the daily static, the it cartoon from http://www.userfriendly.org. They have a hugs archive so the idea is t pass a date and it will show the cartoon for that date. The main page is covered with ads but right clicking on the cartoon and checking the image source gives an url for each gif. I am trying to figure out the pattern they use to come up with the name so I can compose it given the date. It seems like they do something to put off the like of this to stop showing the cartoon without the ads.
Looking at the url gives : uf00xxDD.gif (00 used from 1 dec 98) 1 dec 97 (1st cartoon) http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/97dec/uf20f149.gif 1 jan 98 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/98jan/uf41a614.gif 1 dec 98 (xx starts at 01) http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/98dec/uf000100.gif 31 dec 98 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/98dec/uf000169.gif 1 jan 99 (yy starts at 02 and incremented monthly from now on) http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/99jan/uf000200.gif 1 jan 00 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/00jan/uf001402.gif 2 jan 01 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/01jan/uf002602.gif 1 mar 01 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/01mar/uf002801.gif 10 may 01 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/01may/uf003020.gif 15 jun 01 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/01jun/uf003138.gif 1 jul 01 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/01jul/uf003200.gif 9 jul 01 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/01jul/uf003222.gif 10 jul 01 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/01jul/uf003223.gif 1 jan 02 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/02jan/uf003801.gif 1 nov 02 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/02nov/uf004801.gif 1 dec 02 (added 1 to xx) http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/02dec/uf005001.gif 1 jan 03 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/03jan/uf005101.gif 10 jul 03 (xx = 44 ?) http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/02jul/uf004430.gif 22 aug 03 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/02aug/uf004562.gif 10 is added on one day of the month 2 jan 04 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/04jan/uf006302.gif 1 jan 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05jan/uf007501.gif 2 jan 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05jan/uf007502.gif 8 jan 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05jan/uf007508.gif 15 jan 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05jan/uf007515.gif 16 jan 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05jan/uf007516.gif 17 jan 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05jan/uf007517.gif 18 jan 05 (add 10) http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05jan/uf007528.gif 19 jan 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05jan/uf007529.gif 22 jan 05 xx =75 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05jan/uf007532.gif 1 feb 05 (add 10) http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05feb/uf007611.gif 28 feb 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05feb/uf007638.gif 1 mar 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05mar/uf007701.gif 5 mar 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05mar/uf007705.gif 6 mar 05 (add 10) http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05mar/uf007716.gif 8 mar 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05mar/uf007718.gif 9 mar 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05mar/uf007719.gif 10 mar 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05mar/uf007720.gif 11 mar 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05mar/uf007721.gif 25 mar 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05mar/uf007755.gif 1 apr 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05apr/uf007801.gif 6 apr 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05apr/uf007806.gif 13 apr 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05apr/uf007813.gif 19 apr 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05apr/uf007819.gif 20 apr 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05apr/uf007830.gif 25 jan 05 http://www.userfriendly.org/cartoons/archives/05jan/uf007535.gif Can anyone shed any insight?
