I would like to be able to get some info from the internet into 3dsmax with the script, but I’m having trouble with it
this function gives strange results. it gives false when i have internet connection and true sometimes when i don’t have a connection.
internet.CheckConnection url:
it would be good to at least be able to check if an url exist, or even better if I can somehow throw a variable into max from the web.
Does anyone have any tips for this?

the build in internet connection stuff is more for distributed rendering i guess, but it might be used for xml sockets too. Alternatively, you could use a flash or explorer activex object.
Yes using the ActiveX seems like a pretty good idea. I havne’t used ActiveX much myself so I would need to read up some then.
