How can I check to see if the user is connected to the internet.

Thanks to Director 7.02 this is east. To get a lot of system info you can use the environment call in lingo... put the environment If all you want is the connected status just call it like this... put (the environment).internetConnected This will return online at times if they are on a LAN even if the internet is not accessible. Try using getNetText to retrieve text from a site and test the error code to verify the connection.
