How to determine which IPs in a given range have port 80 using nmap?

I'm new to bash scripting and I'm trying to get this working:

Scanning an IP range for finding devices with the port 80 open... I think it has to look like this:

#!/bin/bash
echo -----------------------------------
for ip in 192.168.0.{1,.255}; do
nmap -p80 192.168.0.1
      if #open; then
            echo "{ip} has the port 80 open"
      else
            #do nothing
fi
done
echo -----------------------------------
exit 0

I also just want to see the results like this:

-----------------------------------
192.168.0.1 has the port 80 open
192.168.0.10 has the port 80 open
192.168.0.13 has the port 80 open
192.168.0.15 has the port 80 open
-----------------------------------

(So without errors or nmap's normal outputs..)

Can someone help me for this?

nmap comes with a nice output parameter -oG (grepable output) which makes parsing more easy. Also it is not necessary to iterate through all IP addresses you want to scan. nmap is netmask aware.

Your example can be written as:

nmap -p80 192.168.0.0/24 -oG - | grep 80/open

The -oG enables the grepable output, and - specifies the file to output to (in this case stdout). The pipe symbol redirects the output of nmap (stdout) to grep, which only returns lines containing 80/open in this case.
