NetworkAvailable(address as string) as boolean

global method, Network Fr, 31. Mai 2002
Mac OS Classic: Works. Mac OS Carbon: Works. Windows: -> false.
Function: Can an address be accessed without dialing?
Example:
if NetworkAvailable("www.apple.com") then
// We can access www.apple.com without dialing
else
// we may need to dial or there is no Internet at all.
end if
Notes:
On Mac OS Classic, the address is not used. OpenTransport is just asked which connection type is used.
On Mac OS X the System checks the address if it's valid, so 192.168..1 will be treated as not available.
