That's very nice, thanks! However, how can I compare filename.txt with a local filename.txt and download it in case they're different?

Actually, I found a way to download, just need to compare the local txt with the one on the website.

Hi, every time an update button is pressed it must check the size of the current file and the file off an url (e.g.: <a href="http://www.test.com/filename.txt" rel="ugc">http://www.test.com/filename.txt</a>) - if they happen to be different then download the new one to replace the old one, and different as in, bigger or smaller. If the file is unavailable returns an error message explaining.<br />
<br />
How can I achieve this?<br />
<br />
Thanks.

How to update text file off an URL?

Delphi is the most powerful Object Pascal IDE and component library for cross-platform Native App Development with flexible Cloud services and broad IoT connectivity. It provides powerful VCL controls for Windows 10 and enables FMX development for Windows, Mac and Mobile. Delphi is your choice for ultrafast Enterprise Strong Development™. Look for increased memory for large projects, extended multi-monitor support, improved Object Inspector and much more. Delphi is 5x faster for development and deployment across multiple desktop, mobile, cloud and database platforms including 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 10.

Delphi

Pascal is an influential imperative and procedural programming language, largely (but not exclusively) intended to teach students structured programming and data structuring. Pasca was implemented on a wide range of architectures, from early PCs to mainframes. Pascal derivatives include OOP-based Object Pascal (used in Delphi and Lazarus/Free Pascal). Pascal is a purely procedural language and includes control statements with reserved words, but has many data structuring facilities and other abstractions like type definitions, records, pointers, enumerations, and sets.

Pascal

A programming language is a formal constructed language designed to communicate instructions to a machine, particularly a computer. Thousands of different programming languages have been created, mainly in the computer field, and many more still are being created every year. The description of a programming language is usually split into the two components of syntax (form) and semantics (meaning). Some languages are defined by a specification document (for example, the C programming language is specified by an ISO Standard), while other languages (such as Perl) have a dominant implementation that is treated as a reference. Some languages have both, with the basic language defined by a standard and extensions taken from the dominant implementation being common.
