URL Request <> a value

Would like to see in the URL request the ability to do a get and then evaluate if a number is greater or less than a set threshold.
Similar to what you would do in drive space

What number?? GET request returns HTTP header + HTML page.

Any number
We have a few services that run on machines that we can't easily monitor via host mon and they out put drive space cpu usage on individual pages we then use some other utilities to evaluate and raise an error if required in HostMon. For us it would be far simpler if we could collect the results out of the web page and if its a number be able to raise an error if its greater or less than.

Do you mean your web page contains single number and nothing else?
Or it shows many different numbers and words as usually? How HostMonitor should find the number that you want to monitor?

In our case single number ( Nothing else in page )

I don't think we will implement such option. You need to check single number, somebody else needs to check 2nd number, other people will need to compare sum of 3 numbers and so on. Number of options - endless

I think you should create script and use Shell Script test method to execute the script.
As basis you may take this script
