Find and repair "Rotten" internal links:

A "rotten" internal link is an internal link within the website to another file or an anchor, which don't work. The typical reasons are...
• Changed file name.
• UPPER/lowercase letter problems in filenames on UNIX servers.
• The file is deleted, but there is still one or more links to it
• Changed anchor name. An "anchor" is the internal targets within a webpage.
• The anchor doesn't exist any more (a very common error.)
• Your "intelligent" html editor has inserted/changed the link to the complete path, e.g. "file:///C|/html/mysite/index.html" instead of just "index.html". This link works perfectly on the editor's computer or internally on the host computer, but it doesn't work when called externally from the Internet or Intranet.
All findings are listed on-screen, and the list may be saved or printed out.

Make a list of unlinked files:

Most unlinked files are old files, which are not used any longer, and which consequently have no links to them. Very often they can be deleted. But of course there may be unlinked files, which could/should remain internally unlinked. Typical examples are:
• A website entry file, which controls the frames.
• The HTML file controlling a guest book.
• The "thank you" answer file to a form questionnaire.
