Hi, I just installed the latest version of Sitemap Generator, and it reports a broken link which should not be reported.
The javascript string that Sitemap Generator is flaging as a broken link is generated by a link directory program and is not new! The code was the same before, and it was not reported.
Here is the answer I received from the link directory software support:
"This appears to be a problem with the software you are using to check
for broken links. The "link" it is flagging as being broken is not
actually a link - it is link code within a javascript string. Because
it is within a javascript string, there is a slash before each
quotation mark in the string - that is how a quotation mark is
represented in a javascript string. The link checker you're using
doesn't appear to take this (very unusual) case into account and
thinks that it is looking at a regular link, which it is not. So,
there is no problem in the code for that page."
This is the code that it is flaging: "<a href=\"[ External links are visible to forum administrators only ]"> and the \ is what it shows as a broken link to my home page which it shows the url as: [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ] notice the double trailing slash in the URL.
I like the ror sitemap so I would rather not just install the older version instead. Can this be fixed?
Thank you,
Scott
