Do you mean to automatically check or just cycle through and do a visual check yourself?
If you mean the later, I just took the script portion that cycles through the banners, but instead of randomizing, it iterates through all of them and displays them all on a "test-banner.php" page. This can even be on your local machine. Then put a heading above each one and you just scroll down for ones that are broken.

ergophobe - Thanks. I'll take a look at the code.
What I figured out the other day as a temporary fix was to install a banner carousel extension that lets me visually check the banners to see if they are still working correctly. I set it up so it's only visible to registered users which works for the way the sites are now.
As soon as I can, I'll look at the script you mentioned for the banner code. It should be easy enough to tweak it the way you mentioned.
thanks again.

Chris,
presumably you have either a list of urls or a way to generate them by a simple algo.
So in my case, my banner rotator is simply based on an array of values that get randomized. So for my verification script, I simply iterate through the array, instead of picking a random element in the array. It's just a couple of lines.
