Setting a Maximum Response Size

See more Spider Examples

The MaxResponseSize property protects your spider from downloading a page that is too large. By default, MaxResponseSize = 0, which indicates that there is no maximum. You may set it to a number indicating the maximum number of bytes to download. URLs with response sizes larger than this will be skipped. Lianja

loSpider = createobject("CkSpider")

loSpider.Initialize("www.chilkatsoft.com")

// Add the 1st URL:
loSpider.AddUnspidered("http://www.chilkatsoft.com/")

// This example demonstrates setting the MaxResponseSize property
// Do not download anything with a response size greater than 100,000 bytes.
loSpider.MaxResponseSize = 100000
