Oups Sorry,

Forget my previous email.
You might be able to follow the same kind of logic.
Try to load an image from a live server assign an onload event to this image
on the onload change the value of global variable from var live = false to
live = true have a separate process on your page with a setTimeout who will
loop for at least 2 minute and if after 2 min that variable is still false
then you can guess that the connection is not available.

Laurent
