I have tried the code:

import java.net.*;

class URLtest
{

 public static void main(String args[])
 {
 	try{
		URL url = new URL("[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.tek-tips.com");[/URL]
		HttpURLConnection httpconnection=null;
		httpconnection=(HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();         
		int responseCode = httpconnection.getResponseCode();
		System.out.println("RestponseCode: " + responseCode);
	}
	catch(Exception e){
		e.printStackTrace();
	}
 }

}

And it worked fine. You just got a timeout while connecting to the server... I can't really tell you where this comes from. Is the URL you used correct? Is the server behind this URL alive? Can you view a page in your browser or ping it?

Cheers

Uuups... forgot to say that I could not test it in the internet. Our firewall here at work won't let me out, so I tried it with a webserver inside the intranet... don't know if this is important.

Hi frag,

Thanks for the reply, I had not set the proxy setting; I just came to know a bit late and i added the following stuffs in my code and it works fine for me.
System.getProperties().put( &quot;proxySet&quot;, &quot;true&quot; );
System.getProperties().put( &quot;proxyHost&quot;, &quot;

http://www-proxy&quot;

);
System.getProperties().put( &quot;proxyPort&quot;, &quot;8080&quot; );

Thanks
Siraj
