So my boss has been killing me about creating a link checker, what I
need to know is there a sample script somewhere to get me started on
creating a checker? Basically we have a ton of links and want to check
if they are valid as in not hardcoded, not sure I want to check if the
link is actually working cause that might not be an easy thing to pull
off. Reason I am doing vbs is cause we cannot install anything on our
server and running something client side is not dependable. With a vbs
file I can just schedule it and produce a report and email it to myself
or anyone else who needed to see if there were broken links. Any leads
to good example scripts?
