    It would be nice to have a page where we would submit a URL and then view a list of URLs with the code line number where the broken link has been found.

    Example..

    http://www.algarvecarhire.pt/index.php    Broken link on line: 136


    http://www.algarvecarhire.pt/index.php    Broken link on line: 223


    Etc...

    It seems like a simple tool to make and it would be very useful.

    Thank you.

    Thanks for the input. I have added it to our feedback. I can also see where this might be able to stretch to backlinks on other sites pointing to 404 pages.

    Personally I would not be worried about any other site except the one being tested.

    Broken links on websites that are not a part of the URL being tested should be ignored as they are irrelevant to the test.

    Simple tools that go to the point are what most people want in my opinion.
