Link Error Checking - Site Owners Forums

Is there a way to check to see if a link comes up with an error and if so then load an alternate link?

For example, say I have a link to a file on another server, if that link is down, can it then load the alternate link?

You would need to write the code in php to download the header for the webpage, then if it returns a "not found" (404?) error message, have your php script spit out the alternate link. This will be very slow. You may not want to do it. I'd look for an alternative unless this is really low-volume e.g. for your personal use.
