What worked was to get the full redirection the browser.   I did a
wget from my hobbit server to download the SGML file.  Then I did a
string match on text that I found in that file.  My first string match
was not in the SGLM file.  It's a picture included by the Java script.
Thanks for your help.
Another solution to this is to use the ext script 'urlplus' which will
follow redirects (via Location: headers not Javascript).

Can you try
10.10.5.173  foobar.pnl.gov <http://pnl.gov/> # class:server
cont=WebMail;https://foobar.pnl.gov
<http://pnl.gov/>/index.html;WebMail.Access
or instead of index.html put in what file is DocumentIndex (Apache
term).  I'm guessing the IIS server isn't redirecting properly.

Folks

I set up a check to match a string for a web email server in my
bb-hosts file to ensure that the web server was functioning
correctly   The check looked like:

10.10.5.173  foobar.pnl.gov &lt;http://pnl.gov> # class:server
cont=WebMail;https://foobar.pnl.gov &lt;http://pnl.gov>;WebMail.Access

The check worked fine until this past weekend when the email
server was migrated from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2007.  Now
instead of an index.html file being downloaded, I get a SGML
document.  Even though the same string is in the title tag in the
document, the check fails.  Can someone suggest a way to check
that the page has properly loaded? 

I apologize if you have received this posting twice.  There were
network problems when I sent it out originally.  I'm not sure it
got out.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Cathy
