using web content to determine the nagios status

[Jaime Ventura]

Hello,
    Im trying to monitor a webserver (and its services) without 
installing a client on it.
    For that I was hopping to use a created php page which tests several 
services(mysql, ...) and prints a status message.
    Is there any way to take the status message presented by the php 
page (OK, WARNING, ERROR,..) and map it to nagios status?
   
    I tried check_http -H webserver -u /status.htm -s "STATUS OK", but 
this way I can only get a status ok or error on nagios status.
    Is there any other way to do it, besides developing a specific plug-in?
Thanks

jaime
