PHP tool to check HTTP URLs for errors and notify by mail
I needed a litte tool that checks HTTP URLs for a defined string on a regular base. If an error occurs, predefined persons will be notified by email.
Since nothing like that existed I hacked it on my own.
The code is quite old so please don't bug me for the bad progamming style. It can surely be improved and that's why I publish it here :-) I also recently added Jabber/XMPP support which means that you can be notified at your jabber account. Just set up an own account for curl-probe, configure it in config.local.inc.php and add this account to your roster. After entering your account in the user profile section you are going to receive every notification via Jabber.
