This might be easy...
How do I test if a website is up?
I want to redirect to another website if it is up, otherwise I'll redirect to a
default website. I need to collect information from the user, but if the
collection page is down for any reason, I need to let them continue on to a web
application. The collection resides on a different server from where we
determine this.
I have this in the OnLoad of a page
if (PingCollectWeb()) {
Response.Redirect(collectUrl + formattedQuery, false);
} else {
// skip for now since the site is down
Response.Redirect(newTarget, true);
}
but I'm uncertain how to actually ping the server.
Thanks,
Daniel Spiess
