[Javascript] Detecting that a page is accessible

[Muchacho, Laurent (TWIi London)]

Hi 

I think I got a solution for you 
You could create a page with a frameset on the top frame you will have a
function who launch the seconde frame 
now the trick in your top frame you create a variable and you only populate
that variable when the seconde frame load with the page from your server,
and you just have a setTimeout on the top frame who gonna check the value of
that variable if the value stay false after 10 or 15 seconde you will
redirect to your free page

Hi all,

Is it possible in JavaScript to detect a page / server not being accessible.

I am, aiming to do this so that I can redirect user to either my webserver
if active and connected to the internet or to a free WebPages server, which
mirrors my webserver.
In other words a failure and redirect script.

thanks

Robert Fernando
