How would you clean up a project ???? Please help!

Hello y'all!

I guess you may have noticed all of my posts ... one right after the other!

I need to desperately clean-up a site and get started with much needed (not to mentioned delayed) work. I am trying to start by getting a clear idea of what pages are linked and which pages are orphan ... to better acess the damage.

The site report offered by DWUD is realy not sufficent (or may be that I do not know what it tells me). I hope for a report that looks like:

ScanFile URL (link) Remark

page1

http://www.here.com/page

external
page1 products/search/garden.html OK!
...
page2 ../../pageX.html OK!
...
page3 stuff/pageX.html target not found!
...

Get the idea? I only wish I could write some C++/Java/Perl or something where something like this can be written - If it is not out there, I wonder why? Am I the first one to ever needed something like this?

I hope to hear from you guys with some positive feedback as I cannot take too many more blows before I totally loose it.

Thank you all in advance for you time and much needed assistance!

Regards;

if I do understand correctly,

Your trying to transition an existing web page in html format to one that has either asp to manage links, or one in a much cleaner format.

Tough project to do depending how big it is. "IF" you can remove all html but the links, just reduce that page right on down. You may be able to - through the use of find and replace - chop that html down into comma deliminated format.

like

url,

http://www.adomainlink.com

, title, a domain link

which then you can import a comma deliminated format text page into an access database.

Anyway you look at it, it will not be a simple project.

Not difficult, but tedious for sure.
