Automatically do capture screen daily on a website

Is there any tool/scripts can do a capture screen on a webpage daily (DJI line daily line chart)? Since the site only keeps today's data.

Web Screen Capture will automatically capture a web page if you run a batch file with the following command as a scheduled task:

webscreencapture.exe [url] [image]

Web Screen Capture is a free web site and web page screenshot and thumbnail software, it can take screenshots of web pages and save them as full sized images, and the images can be output in the JPG/JPEG, BMP, PNG, or GIF formats. The image's Pixel Format can be changed.

  • Create full size screenshots of website pages.
  • Supports JPG, GIF, PNG, BMP image formats.
  • Supports command line usage.
  • Supports batch convert with command line.
  • Simple, very fast and easy-to-use.
  • Freeware, not paid for use.

That's quite an inventive solution ;-) Though how do I set up a scheduled task? – Ivo Flipse – 2010-02-22T17:57:21.390

@Molly, thank you for your detailed answer. However, webscreencapture can't capture this flash object in this site. (http://finance.yahoo.com/echarts?s=%5EDJI#symbol=%5EDJI%3Brange=1d%3Bohlcvalues=0). So I still have to manually use 'picpick' do capture. Is there any work around? Thanks!!

Pagescreen offers to take a daily (or hourly/weekly) HD capture of a given web page - directly from the online service, or using its RESTful API. It can also alert you of any website visual change.

Snapchive allows you to automatically take a screenshot every day/week/month of any website you want. It let's you choose the image format you want to save the image as, and also supports taking screenshots from multiple devices.

It will notify you when each screenshot is taken and will let you download them.
