Question: Assemble list of links from page

apple scruff — Sun, 19 Feb 2006 12:40:04 -0800

I would like to take a web page and assemble a list of every single URL that that page links to. What is the easiest way to do this?

I could, of course, just do a lot of right click/copy link location/paste over and over, but I am praying that someone here will have an alternative method.

Using Firefox, right click, 'View Page Info', select 'Links' tab, CTRL-A (on windows, a.k.a 'select all'). Copy, Paste, ta-da!

save a copy of the page and open it with notepad. add the following to the end and then open it with your browser (i only tested this with firefox) and click "grab".

<button onclick="
var links = document.getElementsByTagName('a');
var i;
var linkList = document.getElementById('linkList');
for(i=0;i<links.length;i++){
linkList.value = linkList.value + links[i].href + String.fromCharCode(10)
}

">grab</button><br/>
<textarea id="linkList" style="width:400px;height:200px;"> </textarea>

Using Opera, Ctrl+J to open a tab listing all the linked content, Press Tab key once or use mouse to focus on list (focus starts in the search box by default), Ctrl+A, Copy and Paste.

you can also view source and then scrape away the html headers with a program or manually in MS word
