Do you have the ability to retrieve them with Javascript? A while ago I did some testing of a linkchecker with Javascript to take away some of the load from the server (but it failed due to cross domain security settings in IE).

Here's what I came up with...a little custom tag called CF_GetLinkList. If anyone can find holes in this, let me know...so far it seems to be working fairly well...basically, it will take a body of text (html obviously) and pull out all the URL's from that body of text. I'm sure there's something else out there (and maybe something a bit more sophisticated) but this is working for me, for now. After using this tag to get the links, I then loop through the LinkList and replace each one with my new link. Here's the code for the tag in case anyone's interested (this assumes that the first character at the end of an 'href' value will always be either a space, a single quote, a double quote, or a greater than sign. If I need to check for any other possibility, please let me know. <!--- cf_getlinksfromtext REQUIRED ATTRIBUTES: TEXT = "body of text you wish to search for links" OPTIONAL ATTRIBUTES: VAR = "name of variable to store the link list" - defaults to: LinkList ---> <CFPARAM NAME="ATTRIBUTES.Var" DEFAULT="LinkList"> <CFSET EndListToCheck = chr(32) & chr(34) & chr(39) & chr(62) > <CFSET NewText = ATTRIBUTES.TEXT > <CFSET Hit = findnocase("href=",newtext) > <CFSET temp = SetVariable("caller." & ATTRIBUTES.VAR,"") > <CFLOOP CONDITION="Hit"> <CFSET NewText = mid(newtext,Hit+5,len(newtext))> <CFIF left(newtext,1) EQ chr(34) OR left(newtext,1) EQ chr(39)> <CFSET newtext = mid(newtext,2,len(newtext)) > </CFIF> <CFSET EndHit = FindOneOf(EndListToCheck,NewText) > <CFIF EndHit> <CFIF NOT ListFindNoCase(Evaluate("Caller." & attributes.Var),left(newtext,EndHit-1)) > <CFSET temp = SetVariable("Caller." & attributes.Var,ListAppend(Evaluate("Caller." & ATTRIBUTES.VAR),left(newtext,EndHit-1))) > </CFIF> <CFSET NewText = mid(NewText,EndHit,len(NewText)) > <CFSET Hit = findnocase("href=",NewText) > <CFELSE> <CFBREAK> </CFIF> </CFLOOP> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:199746 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
