But I can tell you a very useful library in php to parse html code that I've used for the development of the program. http://anton.concord.ru/ With this library and some socket programming is easy to develop tools like this.

Is the source code available? By the way, thanks for the compliment about the site's design. I wish it was mine, but a friend of mine did it. :-) Very nice tool indeed! Is the source code available?

The address is http://www.dead-links.com. Hope you find it useful. Congratulations for the excelent design of this weblog.

I didn't new about that W3 tool. I'll give it a try later. Anyway, you're right. Big sites are the worst offenders -- especially when redesigning. And the very pace of the Web makes hard for anyone to keep things stable. Interesting. I didn’t new about that W3 tool. I’ll give it a try later.

My results were essentially the same as yours. News sites were the worst, which sucks. You would think they'd realize the value of preserving these links more than most.
