Database: sites I have to columns: "id" and "site". I will have approx 800 entries in the db when I am finished and what I want it to do and start with 1st entry and ping the site and display in a table on the screen if it was able to ping site or not.
This is what I have so far. My problem is I am not sure how to make it select a entry, perform the ping, record the results, and then continue to the next entry. <? $db = mysql_connect("localhost","","") or die("Problem connecting"); mysql_select_db("josh") or die("Problem selecting database"); $query = "SELECT * FROM josh.sites"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die ("Query failed"); $numofrows = mysql_num_rows($result); for($i = 0; $i < $numofrows; $i++) { $row = mysql_fetch_array($result); if($i % 2) { //this means if there is a remainder $site = ".row['site']."; <---- its not pulling a site from the database? $host1 = `ping -n 4 $site`; if (eregi("reply", $host1)) { echo "$site is up!"; } else { echo ("$site is down!"); } echo ("<p>"); ?> Please Help!
