Re: Connected To Internet?

[jis <jis at cuci dot nl>]

Joe, thanks for the education. I understand the problems better now.  
On the other hand, there are *extremely clever people* on this  
list........
At the moment I use in my app:

    if System.Network.IsConnected and NetworkAvailableMBS 
("www.nisnews.nl") then
       main.Canvas6.Visible = false
       return true
    else
       main.Canvas6.Visible = true  // show "no connection" warning
       return false
    end if

Regards
Johan Simons
