Hi Rob, et al., Rob's bumping my Abacus quota this AM opened the flood gate and a misnamed 4,687KB short-index.html file poured into my public_html subdir on Abacus. There are 215 URL's with problems. In the future it would be nice to block the ListServ archives as they appear to comprise a large percentage of the short-index file. Needless to say, working with short-index.html via a dial-up connection is a little painful. I ftp'd a copy to my PC and zipped it down to 241KB. I could attach and email the zip to any who wish to view our mess. For those with direct network access the URL is as follows. http://www.bates.edu/~rkleckne/short-index.html Were I writing MomSpider ...not likely... I would provide a "broken link listing" including both the broken link and the page from which it is called. The current version gives a listing of all links checked (huge), which includes the return codes, and a 215 line listing of the broken links. The latter's use requires doing a search through the huge bit before you know where to go to make a correction. It would be lovely to be able to divvy up the broken links by page, for correction. Rick would get LPL's, Bob would get ..., etc. Unless someone has a better suggestion, I will take a few hours over the next week and put together a listing of broken URL's by AVCNet page. This could be distributed and divided up among the group for correction. Your suggestion here....
