Here is some code I use: (I made some changes for obvious reasons and I have not checked this code)
lcURL = "http://www.yahoo.com" Local ; lodoc, ; lcText, ; loie, ; llResult llResult = .T. Try loie = Createobject("internetexplorer.Application") Catch To oException llResult = .F. If Vartype(oException)='O' And ssidebug With oException ssiMessageBox ( ; 'Error '+Transform(.ErrorNo)+Chr(13)+ ; ' '+.Message+Chr(13)+ ; ' '+.LineContents+Chr(13)+ ; ' '+.Procedure ) Endwith Endif Endtry If !llResult Or !Vartype(loie) = "O" ssiMessagebox("There is a problem with your Internet connection"+Chr(13)+ ; "If you are able to access the xxx main web site"+Chr(13)+ ; "Please report this to xxx") Return .F. Endif *loie.Visible = .T. loie.Navigate(lcURL) Inkey(.3) && need a small delay to setup the display. Do While loie.Busy() DoEvents Inkey(.1) Enddo lodoc = loie.Document lcText = lodoc.documentElement.innerText ************* now you can look in lcText to see if it has what you expect from that web site ----- Original Message ----- From: "G Gambill" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, June 28, 2006 9:26 AM Subject: How To Know If an Internet Connection is Active How can I determine if an Internet Connection is active for PostCast Server. I thought about oIE = createobject( 'internetexplorer.application') oIE.Navigate2( "http://www.yahoo.com" <http://www.yahoo.com/>) but can't figure out how to programatically test if that was successful.
