Site Down Script

[mvwebdesign]

Hi,

I was wondering if there was a script that would make my website redirect to another website if site #1 was down.

Thanks

See this thread (http://dynamicdrive.com/forums/showthread.php?t=31495) ;)

That thread refers to an Iframe hosted on his computer and another page hosted on the web. What about a page just hosted on the web?

Thanks

I believe the thetestingsite's code should keep you going :)


<?php
error_reporting(0);

if (fsockopen("www.yoursite.com", 80, $errno, $errstr, 30)) {
header('Location: http://www.yoursite.com/computer.html');
}
else {
header('Location: http://www.other-site.com/page.html');
}
?>


...if nothing works, do post this in the PHP section...i'm not on my wits with regards to PHP ;)
