Instead of a batch, you could process the items one at a time like this:

var items;


function updateStatus(index) {

    if (index == items.size()) {return;}

    var item = items.eq(index);

    var attrId = item.attr("id");

    var address = attrId.replace('ip_', '');

    address = address.replace(/_/g, '.');

    $.get('/ping/' + address,

        function(response) {

            item.html(response);

            $("ul").trigger('updated', [index]);

        }

    );

}

$(document).ready(function(){ items = $(".address"); $("ul").bind('updated', function(event, index) { updateStatus(index + 1); } ); updateStatus(0); });

Nizam, cheers for pointing out this plugin, I’ll have a read a bout it.
You mentioned that long lists might cause issues, is that because all requests will be processed in parallel? In which case using this plugin I could process them in streams, ie 10-20 at a time only, and then next batch, or something along those lines?

Your approach is spot on. You may run into some issues after a while if your list of IP addresses becomes long. You may want to use the excellent jQuery Timers plugin to manage the ping operations via jQuery/AJAX. It's the closest thing to threading in JavaScript.
