I need to be able to input a URL address, check whether it is live, and return a true or false value depending on the result which will then be used in an if statement.
Many Thanks

Its kinda complicated and would only work in IE. have a hidden frame and load the page you are curious about in it. start a setInterval to check for the readystate of the frame and when it is clear the interval then use document.body.innerHTML and use indexOf to look for "Page cannot be displayed" if the result is greater or equal to 0, then load the page in a visible page. jared@aauser.com
