Fix broken links
After you run a links reports, you can fix broken links and image references directly in the Link Checker panel, or you
can open files from the list and fix links in the Property inspector.
Fix links in the Link Checker panel
1
Run a link check report.
2
In the Broken Links column (not the Files column) of the Link Checker panel (in the Results panel group), select
the broken link.
A folder icon appears next to the broken link.
3
Click the folder icon next
to the broken link and browse to the correct file, or type the correct path and filename.
4
Press Tab or Enter (Windows) or Return (Macintosh).
If there are other broken references to this same file, you are prompted to fix the references in the other files as well.
Click Yes to have Dreamweaver update all the documents on the list that reference this file. Click No to have
Dreamweaver update the current reference only.
Note: If Enable File Check In And Check Out is enabled for the site, Dreamweaver attempts to check out files that require
changes. If it cannot check out a file, Dreamweaver displays a warning dialog box and leaves broken references
unchanged.
Fix links in the Property inspector
1
Run a link check report.
2
In the Link Checker panel (in the Results panel group), double-click an entry in the File column.
Dreamweaver opens the document, selects the broken image or link, and highlights the path and filename in the
Property inspector. (If the Property inspector is not visible, select Window > Properties to open it.)
3
To set a new path and filename in the Property inspector, click the folder icon
to browse to the correct file, or
type over the highlighted text.
If you are updating an image reference and the new image appears at the incorrect size, click the W and H labels in
the Property inspector or click the Refresh button to reset the height and width values.
4
Save the file.
As links are fixed, their entries disappear from the Link Checker list. If an entry still appears in the list after you enter
a new path or filename in the Link Checker (or after you save changes in the Property inspector), Dreamweaver
cannot find the new file and still considers the link broken.
