Here's a simple script which you can check to see if a website is up and responding.

<geshi lang="bash">

  1. !/bin/bash
  1. $1 = URL to check
  2. $2 = expected text to be found in the page

function c() {

 echo -en "Site $1\t"
 curl --silent --show-error --proxy-user ${USER}:${HTTP_PROXY_PASS} --proxy ${HTTP_PROXY} --location \
  --dump-header /tmp/$$.header "$1" -o/tmp/$$ && grep -q "$2" /tmp/$$
 if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
   echo "pass"
 else
   echo "failed to match '$2'"
   cat /tmp/$$.header
 fi
 /bin/rm /tmp/$$ /tmp/$$.header

}
