Hi,
One of my documents has ~200 HTML links in the footnotes.
Wondering how folks check the links?
My goal is that:
1. Each footnote with a URL is evaluated
2. They are evaluated to determine whether the URL is valid
3. Check whether or not the page exists
4. Add some indicate in the footnote that it was found not to be up on
some date.
This might require some custom coding, no?

You can parse the buffer, and run some code on all of the links. I did
something like this here
http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu/blog/2013/09/28/Changing-links-to-files-so-they-work-in-a-blog/for
another reason. You could adapt that to do your link validation. I
guess you will need to send a request to the url to see if it is valid.
