checking file under an URL xy

Hey Guys,
i’m sorry, my last post was an fail,

i just wanted to ask how can i check if an picture is available under the URL “xy” just an random URL

i would be very glad if you could help me

Something like this might work - checking the header for a good response from the URL.


dim imageResult as string
dim checkImage as new HTTPSocket

'Check if image exists
imageResult = checkImage.Get("http://URLtoMyImage.com/image.jpg", 20)

if checkImage.HTTPStatusCode = 200 then
  'URL is good so there is an image there
  
else
  'No good
  
end

i will check on that

thanks for helping :slight_smile:

No prob - you could also use HTTPSocket.GetHeaders instead of HTTPSocket.Get which would prevent it from trying to actually fetch the image. This would be faster, especially if your images are large, and it would take less bandwidth. I didn’t think of it initially.
