Victor, is that your query or have you forwared someone else's post here?
Any which ways, the solution is simple. All you need to do is try to
retrieve a file from a remote server using the network xtra's. If the
operation completes successfully, you'll know that the user is connected to
the internet. You'll need to set up your own server and place a file on
that.
As an afterthought, you could instead try to retrieve a website(e.g.
macromedia.com) instead of your own file. My guess is that should work too.
Regards,
Pranav

I want check if the user of my viewer are connected on internet
when he uses the application.
Perhaps can I do this with Lingo or an Xtra?
