FORBIDDEN pages!

[DJuse]

Hello guys/Girls.
I have a question.

If i have an application that connect to the internet and show content from a website, how can i make so that if the server is down my application do not show the FORBIDDEN or PAGE NOT FOUNT Internet Explorer default page?
I would like that if the server is down the application show a local page inside the application!
Is this possible?

An example or piece of code will be appreciate!
Thanks for the help in advance.

Here, short and sweet

isLive = HTTP.TestConnection("http://www.yourwebsite/myscript.php", 20, 80, nil, nil);
if isLive then
-- the webpage is online so load the page
else
--the webpage is offline so do something else
end

isLive = HTTP.TestConnection("http://www.yourwebsite/myscript.php", 20, 80, nil, nil);
if isLive then
-- the webpage is online so load the page
else
--the webpage is offline so do something else
end

** it should be

isLive = HTTP.TestConnection("http://www.yourwebsite/myscript.php", 20, 80, nil, nil);
if isLive == true then
-- the webpage is online so load the page
else
--the webpage is offline so do something else
end

i think you will find (someone correct me if im wrong)

isLive = HTTP.TestConnection("http://www.yourwebsite/myscript.php", 20, 80, nil, nil);
if isLive then
-- the webpage is online so load the page
else
--the webpage is offline so do something else
end

and

isLive = HTTP.TestConnection("http://www.yourwebsite/myscript.php", 20, 80, nil, nil);
if isLive == true then
-- the webpage is online so load the page
else
--the webpage is offline so do something else
end

both return the same result

the same as

isLive = HTTP.TestConnection("http://www.yourwebsite/myscript.php", 20, 80, nil, nil);
if not isLive then
--the webpage is offline so do
else
-- the webpage is online so load the pagesomething else
end

would return the same as

isLive = HTTP.TestConnection("http://www.yourwebsite/myscript.php", 20, 80, nil, nil);
if isLive == false then
--the webpage is offline so do
else
-- the webpage is online so load the pagesomething else
end

or

isLive = HTTP.TestConnection("http://www.yourwebsite/myscript.php", 20, 80, nil, nil);
if isLive ~= true then
--the webpage is offline so do
else
-- the webpage is online so load the pagesomething else
end

its just a formatting thing

it kind of confused me to start with, i was thinking "what one do i use" but ir made ams with a kind of freelance coding style, plus you need to use differant ways of doing the same thing in order to make complicated functions (wich im slowly getting to grips with, lol)
