O.P. Website Status
I was looking at making something that would change my personal message to say, Site has no problems, site offline ect by pinging it. so if it pinged google and it replide Google In Running With No Problems, If google doesnt reply Google is Currently Experiencing Problems


Would something like this be possible and can anyone advise anything

Thanks

RE: Website Status
Something like this is the easiest way :)

js code:
CheckWebsiteStatus ( 'google.ca' );

function CheckWebsiteStatus ( sUrl ) {
    var xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject( 'Microsoft.XMLHTTP' );
    xmlhttp.open ( 'GET', 'http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/'+sUrl+'&'+new Date ( ).getTime ( ), true );

    xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function ( ) {
        if ( xmlhttp.readyState === 4 && xmlhttp.status === 200 ) {
            var resText = xmlhttp.responseText.toLowerCase();
            if ( resText.substr ( 0 , 3 ) === 'huh' ) {
                Debug.Trace ( 'Website does not exist on the interwho' );
            } else if ( resText.substr ( 0 , 13 ) === 'it\'s just you' ) {
                Debug.Trace ( 'Website is up' );
            } else if ( resText.substr ( 0 , 17 ) === 'it\'s not just you' ) {
                Debug.Trace ( 'Website is down' );
            }
        }
    }
    xmlhttp.send ( '' );
}

And there is a much better way of doing this I am just too lazy to do it.
