How do i create a http.request event handler to not crash a program if the site is down or there is no http.

Yes, I know that checks to see if http is on. But what about if http is on and someone enters a site that doesn't exist into a CC browser (Hint: im working on one), then the program crashes when trying to go there!

It will return an event… http_success and http_failure..
if event == "http_failure" then
print("Unable to access website.")
end
