Easy "report" function

    Hello,

    Looking to simplify the process of reporting broken links. Is there a way to create a button/link that emails me specific information (url of broken link) when the user clicks it without having to fill out a form?

    Did I even make sense there?

    Thanks in advance

    Do you want the user to click a button if a link doesn't work or do you want your server to automatically check the links to see if they are broken and then send you a report on all the broken links?

    i think theres way where you can scan the whole site to see if theres any broken links. or you can always use a php 404 page where it will grab the current url then u just hav a submit button on the page for the person to press.

    are you talking about internal links or links to external sites (which makes things more tricky in terms of automation though certainly not impossible)
