I'm planning to work a bit on the link checker in the next few days, to make it comply with the IRI spec. I have a very simple test at http://www.w3.org/2001/08/iri-test/linkcheck/resumeHtmlImgSrcBase.html If successful, you will see a green image with OKAY text and smilies. The link checker, at: http://validator.w3.org/checklink?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2001%2F08%2F iri-test%2Flinkcheck%2FresumeHtmlImgSrcBase.html&hide_type=all&depth=&check= Check claims that there is a broken link (which there shouldn't be). What I'm planning to do is to convert downloaded pages in the link checker to UTF-8 (assuming I can find out what the encoding is). This will be very similar to the validator. The difference is that the link checker will only complain about missing 'charset' information if that information is actually relevant for linkchecking (i.e. in particular if there are links containing non-ASCII characters). Any comments? Regards, Martin.
