For the most part, it doesn't.  I think APH is redesigning it.

Hello All,

I've only been with the list a short while.  I'm very pleased with the
amount and quality of knowledge shared here.  So, I am now going to get
around to why I joined in the first place.

I would like to get a better understanding of Spider.  I've used it to
download a single web page or a portion of a single web page.  Can it do
more then this?  Can it be automated so that every morning I just walk over
to my computer and plug in my BookPort and the newspaper is downloaded?  I
keep coming across references to RSS feeds.  Do I need to learn more about
them to use Spider?

I apologize if my questions are not clear, or if I am heading down a path
that does not exist.  I'm sure that as those knowledgeable on this list
start posting information I will have a better understanding of what I need
to ask.

It just occurred to me that I am probably the only one not attending the
Convention.  I always have a conflict with the Convention schedule and my
teaching schedule at the University.  So if I don't get responses to this
post, I will repost it sometime the week after the convention.

Thanks,
Annette

11For I know the plans I have for you," says the LORD. "They
are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. 12In those days when you pray, I will listen. 13If you look for me in earnest,
you will find me when you seek me. 14I will be found by you," says the LORD...
