I just gave it a try but the same issue occurred. I'll have a few more play arounds with the inquisit parameters and see if I can get something working otherwise I'll look at sorting something out in the php code. Thanks for your help.

I have my HTML element set up like this in inquist: <html pingsite> / items = ("http://mywebsite.com.au/sendsms.php?currenttime=<%script.currenttime%>&mobilenumber=test") </html> This connects to the site just fine but when I check the logs on the website it appears that running this once will result in the script accessing the site twice in quick succession. This is an issue since it will attempt to send the sms twice at this point. Do you have any idea why this would be happening? Thank you. No idea. And posting the HTML element in isolation is not sufficient to say anything more. Hi Dave, The HTML element can be run in isloation but even when it is run in block, trial structure like this: <text testInstructions> / items = ("This is a test") / fontstyle = ("MS Shell Dlg 2", 1.76%, false, false, false, false, 5, 1) / color = black / size = (50, 50) / position = (50, 50) </text> <html pingsite> / items = ("http://mywebsite.com.au/sendsms.php?currenttime=<%script.currenttime%>&mobilenumber=test") </html> <trial pingsitetrial> / stimulustimes = [500 = pingsite] / timeout = 1000 </trial> <trial instrTrial> / stimulustimes = [0 = testInstructions] / timeout = 2000 </trial> <block block> / trials = [1 = instrTrial; 2 = pingsitetrial] </block> It still connects to the site twice. Looks like I might have to work something out server side. Thanks.

Set the <html> element to not erase, make it small, and display it off-screen. <html pingsite> / items = ("http://mywebsite.com.au/sendsms.php?currenttime=<%script.currenttime%>&mobilenumber=test") / size = (0%, 0%) / position = (-10%, -10%) / erase = false </html> If that doesn't do the trick, you may be able to do something with your SMS sending logic server-side to prevent multiple SMS going out to the same number within a short time span.
