I am a total newb so please dont leave anything out if you can help me. Heres the deal: at www.gameranger.com/indicator.cgi?account#here the size of the webpage(in BYTES) will tell whether or not the user is online or offline. I am building a webpage which will tell if members in my "clan" are online or offline on the Gameranger service. I need to embed a ASP script into my html that will compare the size of the above url with the known online/offline sizes and then depending on which one it matches, I need to display the word "online" or "offline" next to that person's name on my webpage. Please help me, and leave your AIM screenname if you can so I can communicate that way. Thanks!

Also, please tell me exactly how, where, etc. to embed it in the html

what does the page its self look like, could I see an example (the indicator page). This seems like it would be a hard way to go about doing this and I am wondering if these is an alternative. Possibly parsing text into a box and then getting the length or just picking the word online or offline out.
