I have specific IPs and Ports for each of a dozen different Weblogic apps running on a server. I need to create a dashboard that hits each of these URLs and, based on the one line very simplistic HTML page returned, need to show the AppName and its current status (Up / Down / Unknown). Can you point me in the right direction for a solution? I need this to run from a browser located on any Windows 7 box on the network and have a single UNIX Web Server and a single WebLogic server. I know how to invoke the URLs using JavaScript but have not been able to find a way to receive and process the HTML returned from each Application to produce the actual output I desire.

Okay, but I was close...well, maybe...okay, not so close.

It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.
