Hi,

am developing a Broken link check program. Is there any way to check whether a web link is broken or not without downloading the file ?

thanks for your help

You can also use the Microsoft Internet Transfer Control (MsInet.ocx) to try to connect to the page.

I found this in one of the websites... see if this makes any sense to you

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Set obj = Browser("name:=Blackboard.*").Page("title:=Blackboard.*").Frame("name:=main.*").object.All.tags("IMG")
    For Each element In obj
        s1 = element.nameProp
        If Browser().Page().Frame().Image("filename:=" & s1, "index:=0").exist(0) Then
            If Browser().Page().Frame().Image("filename:=" & s1, "index:=0").object.complete = "True" Then
                MsgBox "Link is Valid"
            Else
                MsgBox "Link is Invalid"
            End If
        End If
    Next
End Sub
