Thank you for the quick response!
Ok,
I understand, I will wait for this upgrade.
Still: I use this and display it in reports for HTTP Tests, so I will need it for URL tests.
Do I understand from your answer that agents are going to do HTTP tests? If this is the case, no need for URL tests then, I would just use HTTP tests.
Thank you

I am thinking better do send web page in alerts. Because erros happens different: http 404, database error, asp error etc. We can do test on check content pages and if page different on condition in test, hostmon sends alert with whole page. I am doing this with a netcat 1.1(execute external program) now.

You may use %HttpPage% variable as well. Quote from the manual:Viran1 wrote:I am thinking better do send web page in alerts.

=============================
%HttpPage% - Represents contents of the monitored web page (first 32768 (32K) characters of the web page if test was performed by HostMonitor; first 2048 (2K) characters of the page if test was performed by RMA).
Variable may be empty if you setup URL test item to check HTTP response only, without checking content or CRC of the page. HTTP test returns an empty string if a HEADER request is used. It also returns an empty string when a monitored web server does not respond.
