What exactly are you wanting to check with this url? And which protocol is this URL using? Is it HTTP?
- Lynx is a good TUI web browser
- Curl is a good command line URL tool that supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, FTPS, SCP, SFTP, TFTP, LDAP, LDAPS, DICT, TELNET, FILE, IMAP, POP3, SMTP and RTSP
- wget is a simple tool that will download a resource using HTTP, HTTPS or FTP
Curl and Wget are available from HP in the
Internet Express.
You can also install a GUI web browser like Firefox, but then you'll need an X server on the client side to display it. This is the most cumbersome solution IMO.

TclCurl(3) TclCurl TclCurl(3)
NAME
TclCurl: - get a URL with FTP, FTPS, HTTP, HTTPS, SCP, SFTP, TFTP, TELNET, DICT, FILE, LDAP, LDAPS, IMAP, IMAPS, POP, POP3, SMTP, SMTPS
and gopher syntax.
SYNOPSIS
curl::shareinit
shareHandle share ?data?
shareHandle unshare ?data?
shareHandle cleanup
curl::sharestrerror errorCode
DESCRIPTION
With the share API, you can have two or more 'easy' handles sharing data among them, so far they can only share cookies and DNS data.
curl::shareinit
This procedure must be the first one to call, it returns a shareHandle that you need to use to share data among handles using the -share
option to the configure command. The init MUST have a corresponding call to cleanup when the operation is completed.
RETURN VALUE
shareHandle to use.
shareHandle share ?data?
The parameter specifies a type of data that should be shared. This may be set to one of the values described below:
cookies
Cookie data will be shared across the easy handles using this shared object.
dns Cached DNS hosts will be shared across the easy handles using this shared object. Note that when you use the multi interface,
all easy handles added to the same multi handle will share DNS cache by default without this having to be used!
shareHandle unshare ?data?
This command does the opposite of share. The specified parameter will no longer be shared. Valid values are the same as those for share.
sharehandle cleanup
Deletes a shared object. The share handle cannot be used anymore after this function has been called.
curl::sharestrerror errorCode
Returns a string describing the error code passed in the argument.
