note 51214 added to function.curl-setopt

AZAds is a traffic exchange that we wrote. We wanted to come up with a way to check the UP or DOWN status of a submitted URL. Here is the solution we came up with. Can also be used for a site monitoring service. <? $uServer="$url"; @$ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "$uServer"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0); @curl_exec($ch); $errnum=curl_errno($ch); @curl_close($ch); if($errnum != "0") { print "Remote Site Status: DOWN"; } else { print "Remote Site Status: UP"; } ?> Simply feed the URL to be tested into $url. The code will check the site and return the error code if there is one and display to appropriate message. Hope this is useful.
