About Broken Link Viewer

The Broken Link Viewer stores a list of broken links found on your site. A broken link error occurs when a browser attempts to access a page/item that does not exist. Link verification is done on text links, images, plug-ins, backgrounds, style sheets, scripts, Java applets, and more. The Broken Link Viewer contains a continuously updated list of URLs.

Note The Broken Link Viewer provides a list of broken links, it does not fix the links.

On the Manage Broken Links page you can see:
