All Over Software Jobs: Re: [Developers_For_Ever] Question: Check webpage availability...

Thursday, December 15, 2011

Dear ALL;

You have to check for the Http status code 200 which means it is ok and the link is found and working. Use the following code

if(response.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK)

Thanks a lot for your Time and Collaboration.

I think you must check the status code for the page URL, here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes you can find status codes and what it means.

Hi,

I have an issue, I want to check if a certain url is valide one or not, so I used:

HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);//url: is the one I need to check its availability)

HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();

//and then I returned the: response.StatusCode.ToString(), it always return found!!! although the website isn't valide.

For instance, "http://www.google.co.uk" => Found

"http://www.googleeeee.co.uk" => Found !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please, I need your opinions.

Thanks in advance.

Marwa Ahmad
