Need help! Web-based LAN Scanner

[jhayzapi]

Guys, im just a newbie here, i have a school project and its a web-based project that scans all Internet Protocol (IP) in a Local Area Network (LAN) and displays a green light image if the workstation is online and red light image if offline, this is my coding:[code=asp]
<% Response.Buffer = true %>
<%
url = "192.168.0. 1"

Set objWShell = CreateObject("W Script.Shell")
Set objCmd = objWShell.Exec( "ping " & url)
strPResult = objCmd.StdOut.R eadall()
set objCmd = nothing: Set objWShell = nothing

strStatus = "offline"
if InStr(strPResul t,"TTL=")>0 then strStatus = "online"

response.write url & " is " & strStatus

%>[/code]
if the ip is offline then the output here is:
192.168.0.1 is offline
my question is... if there's any code that changes the value of 'strStatus' into image that is located in 'Images\offline .gif' ? Btw, im using ASP VBScript.

Thanks in advance guys.

ASP's output is generally just printing out HTML code. In your case you are printing out the word "offline" or "online" but you could just as easily print out any HTML code including an image tag. So why don't you say [code=asp]strStatus = "<img src='...'>"[/code] instead of [code=asp]strStatus = "offline"[/code]?
