[Nagiosplug-help] Questions using negate?

[Rick .]

Thanks Subhendu,

The plugin works a lot better. My only problem now is that i need to use the 
-s command to check for a string of text using check_http. The string needs 
to be two words.
When i put the two words in the quotes "word1 word2" with check_http only, 
the command works fine. But as soon as i negate the check_http command, it 
doesn't work with more than one word in the string.
I have tried -s /"word1 word2/" etc but unfortunately it isn't working.

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks alot!

Rick :)
