Check Entire Websites with the Batch Wizard

The CSE HTML Validator Batch Wizard lets you check entire websites for HTML & CSS syntax, spelling, SEO (search engine optimization), broken links, and more.

Simply launch the Batch Wizard from CSE HTML Validator by pressing F2 and create a list of targets that you want to process. Targets can be URLs, files, or folders. Set the Batch Wizard to do what you want to do (validate, spell check, link check, etc) and then run the job to generate the report. Reports are created in HTML format and can be viewed in a normal web browser.

URLs can be followed and websites can be "spidered" or "crawled" with depth limit control and other limits. For example, to check an entire website, add the website's root URL as a target and then set the target's properties to follow links with a depth limit of "-1" to check the entire site (-1 means no depth limit). Followed links are also limited (by default) to links starting with something like "http://www.yourdomain.com/", so if you link to another site, it won't start crawling that site as well, but it will make sure the link is valid if link checking is enabled.

Batch Wizard Features
