check_xi_service_http does it load JavaScript from a page?

Post by ecarrasq »

I'm doing a web page content check using the Nagiosxi Web Page Monitoring Wizard (check_xi_service_http)

The question was brought up,
"Does Nagios execute the javascript returned by these monitored pages?"
There are several JavaScripts that run when the page is loaded by a browser.

Thanks,
Eddie

this plugin does not execute the javascript.

For this type of check I would suggest

http://library.nagios.com/component/sea ... ord=autoit

or

Perfect! Thanks for the fast reply.

We actually are looking for Nagios to "Not" execute the JavaScript, so it worked out perfectly.

Thanks!
