      {

            HttpWebRequest myHttpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
            // Sends the HttpWebRequest and waits for a response.
            HttpWebResponse myHttpWebResponse = (HttpWebResponse)myHttpWebRequest.GetResponse();
            if (myHttpWebResponse.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK)
