Josh,
Believe it or not, I found an effective way to do that with a batch script!
But PHP works better :)
One of the easiest ways in PHP is to use the backtick method - the `
character (just like in unix).
Example:
<pre>
<?php
echo
ping blah.host.com;
?>
</pre>
Works great.

what would be the best way to ping a host and return the output to a
webpage?
