Hi All,

Is there any way to check if a website / link exists and return the results to an error message or write a table on to a html page. EG

PAGE STATUS

http://www.website1.com

OK

http://www.website2.com

OK

http://www.website2.com

FAILED

http://www.website4.com

OK

How would I integrate this into a html page? If possible I would like to put the URL's that are to be checked into an excel spreadsheet which the ASP page will read and then fill in the status and maybe even the time. If possible I would like the table inserted into a HTML/ASP page. Also how could I get the page to send an e-mail with the results of each failed page, but only when one of the pages have failed.

I have very little understanding of ASP, so please be clear and patient with me!

Many thanks in advance

You could use a component (ASP-Tear or ASP-HTTP) to retrieve the contents of the page, and check if it returns a 404 error - otherwise it should be ok... This is not a bug - it's an undocumented feature...
