Putting uptime results on web pages?

[defining]

Hi There,
Has anyone created something or knows how to grab the uptime reports of the hostings servers and display them on a web page automatically?

I'd like to put the uptime results on my company's web page to promote the web hosting.

?

What exactly are you wanting to grab and display?

? Anything would be cool... I'd like it so that it would always be updated though... I could update it monthly for example but realtime would be best.

Example:

Server Status: 99.6% Uptime, Total Amount down: 6 mins, 23 sec...

or even

Server Uptime Status: 99.6%.

If you search these forums for "alertra" you'll find a few examples of different things that you can do. In general you'll just need to load the URL into a script and parse the HTML data to get what you need.

Thanks Andrew,
I'll check it out. If I find anything I'll post the links here.

Here's how I did mine.

First, go to http://forums.dathorn.com/showthread.php?t=4 where the links to all the Dathorn server Alerta pages are, and click on your server. When the page loads, copy the URL for your page. For Cpanel51, its "http://uptime.alertra.com/uptime.php?id2=2174&id1=875375", so you would replace that with YOUR Alerta URL in the following code:

<center>
      <iframe name="alerta" id="alternate" src="http://uptime.alertra.com/uptime.php?id2=2174&id1=875375"
  width="600" height="400" frameborder="0" scrolling="no">
      </iframe>
</center>

Place that where you want on a page you design, with your header and footer. It works like a champ.

Alertra also offers XML data. Some more info can be found at the URL below.
