[thelist] Checksum web pages ???

[Toby Mills]

A lot depends on your editing software, UltraEdit, for example, allows you
to launch tools passing filenames and more to a command line. Thus you could
use this to run a program from UEdit to update the checksum info and
database.

But I image your best bet is to write a script which will run through files
in a folder and insert a meta tag into your html page with the checksum on
it and also add the file to a database table of checksums.

There are quite a few progs out there that will return an MD5 checksum,
given a file. I got one (zipped 19kb) I can mail you, unfortunately I cant
find the web address of the creator.
I cant see it being that hard to do.

Is there any technology out there that'll put a checksum on a web page at
edit time so we can know if it's been hacked?
