[tw] Re: Firefox Addon Pinger doesn't work

Hi Sub,

The problem seems twofold. Using TiddlyWiki you might want to...

1) Check whether internal (wiki-)links are working.

You can do that by skimming through the missing tab in SidebarTabs.

2) Check whether external links are working.

This is something that pinger would do. Currently I would not know how
to best check on the availability of the other end of an externalLink
in TiddlyWiki. The best example for such troubles would be TiddlyWiki
itself and links pointing to tiddlers in other TiddlyWikis. There
simply is no harmonized way for any of todays crawlers to check on
that.

Maybe there's some kind of service along with its API that one could
feed with a list of links and then retrieve status information as to
the availability of these URI's. On the other hand, if you wanted to
check all externalLinks throughout a TiddlyWiki, you'd probably first
have to either scan all tiddlers for externalLinks and then have some
mechanism to send these (through something equivalent to) Pinger...
eventualy indicating which externalLink in which tiddler seems to be
dead.

So, maybe some script by the name of ListExternalLinks would be of
help to you which would output something like this...

*tiddler1
**externalLink1
**externalLink2
*tiddler2
**externalLink3
**externalLink4
*etc...

...and something on top of it like Pinger to indicate the availability
of these links (however that works).

Cheers, Tobias.

Thanks for your fast reply.

Sorry if I was a bit unclear. The list are all external links to some
normal websites (no TWs). The list a report of all external link in my
CMS and I want to store them in my TW.

When I open the tiddler and richt-click  Ping all links, nothing
happens and only 2 external links in the left menu are checked.

The source code of both (external links in the tiddler and in the
menu) seem not very special and similar.

Maybe Pinger doesn't recognize tiddlers as webpage content?
