This dialog is shown after VSS has scanned your Web files for broken hyperlinks. VSS differentiates between two kinds of hyperlinks: internal, and external.
Internal links are within your Web site: that is, one file refers to another file in the same VSS project tree. VSS checks all internal links, and displays any potential problems. Problems are not determined by actually searching for files on your Web site; instead, VSS searches for files inside your project tree. For instance, suppose that the file $/My/Web/FU.ASP contains the line:
<A HREF=“ORDER.HTM”>
VSS will make sure that $/My/Web/ORDER.HTM exists. If that file exists, the hyperlink is valid, and is not displayed. If the file does not exist, this hyperlink is listed as broken.
External hyperlinks are jumps to sites on the World Wide Web that are not in your project tree. VSS will try to resolve the external hyperlinks in your web page.
Check Hyperlinks Results Windows
