title: getting client to automatically send data to server
body: <p>i am running a server side application which receives data of ping done from client side to certain ip addresses.
  Currently a person goes to these clients and does the ping manually.
  Can i automate this process of client running the ping program through javascript or any client side language ?</p>
  
  <p>I want to make the client automatically ping a few ip addresses, then extract the data from the ping request and then feed this data to the server so it can be recorded.
  Is this possible ?</p>
