subject: URL validation

GD> I am looking for a program that will validate all URL references

 BR> If you want a DOS Batch program, one could write a simple C program
 BR> that would extract URLs from an HTM file into a ?.BAT file of the
 BR> form:
 BR> HTGET -v -oLINKnnnn.HTM {url}

 BR> 1) Using Internet Rex or other Dialer, dial up ISP 2) Install/Run
 BR> packet Driver PPPD 3) Copy base Wattcp.Cfg (i.e. copy wattcp0.cfg
 BR> wattcp.cfg) 4) Run MKWATCFG.COM to append dynamic DNS to wattcp.cfg
 BR> from IP-UP.BAT 5) Run Batch file created above (re-direct STDERR for a
 BR> Log) 6) Run Termin.Com to terminate Packet Driver
 BR> I do this daily, using a fixed Batch file, and it works great!

I can do the C program easy. The other stuff I may try if I don't find a
program.

 BR> A Base/Skeleton WATTCP.CFG, MKWATCFG.COM and HTGET102.EXE can be
 BR> Freq'd from here via Fido or E-Mail :)

Thanks! :)
