I have a server for a game on my computer, and want to put a server status code on my website. I was wondering if something like this would work:

CODE

<?
$ip = "IP"; // IP Here
$port = PORT; // Port Here
if(fsockopen($ip, $port, $errno, $errstr, '10'))
echo "The game server is Online!";
else
echo "The game server is Offline!";
?>

But which post will you try to connect to.
Also will the server allow you to do so.

I tried it, and it doesnt seem to connect. I get a php warning

Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to ar.servegame.com:50000 in /home/chopsuey/public_html/test.php on line 14

dear ChopSuey i think you must select port at localhost ( your hosting) for any connection you need 2 open port and 2 ip , at this code you select remote port (your pc) but you dont select local port (default = 80 ) you need to active localport !
thanks

CODE

<?
$ip = "IP"; // IP Here
$port = PORT; // Port Here
if(fsockopen($ip, $port, $errno, $errstr, '10'))
echo "The game server is Online!";
else
echo "The game server is Offline!";
?>
