is online? by Airilsm2006
My simple way to check user online without annoing 'Network Connection Popup'. May be not working correctlly on network computer ;)
If OnLine() Print "You're online" Else Print "You're not online"
WaitKey()
End

Function OnLine()
n = CountHostIPs("")
For k=1 To n
ip = HostIP(k)
ipaddress$ = DottedIP$(ip)
If ipaddress$="127.0.0.1"
	notconnect=1
EndIf
Next
Return Not(notconnect)
End Function

the only question I have with this, is does it still tell you if you are online on the internet or just connected to a network?

Yeah, personally, I'd use a function that sends a request to a few servers (microsoft.com, google.com, yahoo.com) if at least one responds, then your online, if not, well, chances are your not! :)

Anyway, that's me, but I'm sure someone will have a use for the above! ;)
