[WEB4LIB] RE: identifying links

[Hugh Jarvis]

Perhaps pull the page (site) into something like FrontPage and let it detect
all the links for you...?

Or run a Perl script on it.  Should be simple matter to have it search the
page for links, dump them into a file, sorted as you  like.

Probably both will miss any hidden behind scripting or forms.
