Many of you have asked about pinging the Blog Portal programmatically.
The following is the code in M$ ASP.
In ASP:
Dim objXMLHTTP, sReturn, sPingURL Set objXMLHTTP = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
sPingURL = "http://www.kamat.org/community/ping.asp?" & _ _ BlogURL=$BlogURL$&Annotation=$BlogTitle$"
'customize the ping depending on your blog software sPingURL = Replace(sPingURL ,"$BlogURL$", BlogMainURL) sPingURL = Replace(sPingURL ,"$BlogTitle$", BlogTitle)
objXMLHTTP.Open "GET", strURL, false objXMLHTTP.Send()
sReturn= objXMLHTTP.ResponseText Set objXMLHTTP = Nothing
Perl, PHP and other implementations coming soon.
If you do not have the capability to program on your host, you can create a bookmark
in your browser to the following location:
http://www.kamat.org/community/ping.asp?BlogURL=YourBlogURL
and click on it whenever you wish to ping.
Please note that the Pickup Line is not updated
when you choose this method.
