Integrity : Website link-checking made easy!
10/12/07 17:10 Filed in: YMMV
If you manage or create website, one of the more essential but tedious tasks is to maintain the integrity of the links - you move files or pages around, or external sites disappear.
Rather than have to manually click each link on your website to test its validity, then have to go back and check the next one, Integrity, a freeware* utility from Sheila Dixon of PeacockMedia will do that for you. Feed it your home page address (url) and Integrity will follow all of your internal links to find your pages, checking the server response code for all internal and external links found. It will then deliver a report, allowing you to go in and fix the highlighted broken links.

A word of warning...

Mac OS X 10.5 'Leopard' makes significant changes to Directory structure - so DON'T be tempted to run either Alsoft DiskWarrior or Micromat TechTool Pro (which both feature Directory repair routines) on your new 10.5 installation, as you could render your system unbootable.
Both Alsoft and Micromat have indicated that their software may not yet be fully compatible with Mac OS X 10.5, and once they get their release version of Leopard the same as everyone else they will post updates on their websites as quickly as possible - so stay tuned!
[Whilst developers get Mac OS X 10.5 developer builds from Apple to update and test their software with, it is possible for Apple to make last minute changes to what ships in the box - thus their need to wait until they get the same version/build as everyone else before publishing their updated software.]
