Checking web page links

[newtoperl]

I have a web page with about 25 links to

http://www and

local web links on my server. Is there a way in Perl to check the page links and make sure all of them are okay and give me a warning messages about the ones that are not working??

This is on an NT server.

You could write a perl program to search out each link, and use the LWP module to try to fetch the page headers for each one. If you get a successful return code, the link is good. Tracy Dryden

For you are crunchy, and good with mustard.

I am still lost on how this would be done?
Can you provide some sort of example on how to do this?
