What’s New:
Version 9.9.0:
Adds support for checking for links within Word (.docx) document
A new checkbox in the settings: ‘check links within docx files’ is now alongside the existing ‘check links within pdf files
Adds support for checking all the links within a *local* pdf or docx document:
If File > Open is used and pdf or docx chosen, the file:// url will be passed to the ‘new setttings’ dialog (alternatively, use File > New and drag the file into the ‘starting url’ field, clearing the field and putting that field in focus first, or type the file:// url
If a new config is initiated using the above methods, and the starting url is a local pdf or docx, some necessary settings will be set (‘this page only’, and ‘check links within pdf/docx’)
(Note, Scrutiny already handled a local list of links in txt or csv format, using the above method to add it.
When testing linked files, now automatically ignores the wordpress rest api files which return an unauthorised status when tested, leading to unnecessary concern.

What’s New:
Version 9.8.0: A number of fixes and enhancements related to the padlock in browser address bars. Different browsers have different criteria for displaying the padlock for a secure site. The insecure content report will now include:
Insecure urls found in certain meta tags, such as open graph or Twitter cards.
Insecure images, whether hosted externally or not
Insecure form action urls, even if the ‘check form action’ is switched off.
Here’s the full list of changes:
Adds option to search certain meta tags for urls. Those urls will be link-checked and also checked to see whether they count as insecure / mixed content. The meta tags in question are meta name=, meta itemprop= and meta property=. This includes social media tags such as meta property=og:image
Now correctly checks externally-hosted images to see whether they count as insecure / mixed content.
Fixes some image urls that appear on css not being reported when in single page mode.
Tidies up image alt text appearing as “[alt:][alt:]” (ie the alt text indicator duplicated)
Form action urls are now always collected and reported so that they can be checked to see whether they count as insecure / mixed content. They will be link-checked or not depending on the ‘Check form actions’ option.

Version 9.7.2:
Fixes bad links being reported incorrectly, where the url exists on a style sheet and is in the form: behaviour: url(‘#default#’) or behaviour: url(‘#objID’)
These are not urls but directives, and not a url that needs testing. Now handled correctly (ignored).
Intercepts the Quit command and prevents it if a scan is running in a window or tab. This prevents loss of data if Quit is called by mistake while the scan is still running, or if the system tries to shut down for any reason.

What’s New:
Version 9.5.1: Adds:
Ability to test anchors. You can switch the option on using a new checkbox on Integrity’s first tab.
This will cause urls like /index.html#top and /index.html#bottom to be reported as separate links (resulting in more data) and tested separately. (more cpu and time for crawl)
If a link url has a #fragment then Integrity will report the server response code as before (coloured red if status is bad). The anchor has no bearing on this. However, if the status is good, then Integrity makes a further check to see whether a name or id can be found on the target page matching the link fragment. If not, this is added to the link’s warnings, and the link will be marked orange
You can view the details of the warning in the Link Inspector
Note that the anchor check is case-sensitive. Officially anchors are case-sensitive. Some browsers may treat anchors as case-insensitive, but this doesn’t mean that all browsers will and it doesn’t mean that it’s right.
Note that you can’t ‘ignore querystrings’ and also test the anchors, since the anchor fragment comes after the querystring.
The filter button contains a new item ‘Warnings’ which shows only links with warnings, this will include links with anchors where the anchor (a name or an id) can’t be found on the page
As far as the filter button is concerned, ‘Warnings’ doesn’t include redirects, even though they’re both coloured orange in the interface and the Link Inspector Warnings tab does include warnings. The Filter button allows you to separate them
The filter button option ‘Redirects’ will still show redirects, even if you’ve chosen ‘do not report redirects’ in Preferences.
Typing a ‘#’ into the search field will show links which contain a #fragment.
Warnings (which have been reported in the link inspector since v9.0) now cause the link to be coloured orange in the views. As some people like to work towards a clean set of results and may not consider the warnings important, the colouring of warnings can be switched off in Preferences > Links > Warnings. The ‘Warnings’ filter will still work when colouring of warnings is switched off in Preferences.
Option for all-links.csv (optionally saved automatically at the end of the scan) to be based on the links flat view rather than the collapsed ‘by link’ view. Using this option may result in a very large file for larger sites but it is a more comprehensive csv than the default option.
Fixes:
Garbage urls caused by a url containing a comma, or a dаta: image within an srcset.
Garbage urls caused by certain jаvascript code.
Bug that’s unlikely to have been noticed. If a url redirects and the redirect url has a # fragment, traditionally the rule is that those fragments are just trimmed. But they weren’t being trimmed for redirect urls. That is now fixed, but of course the new preference to not ignore anchors is respected.
Warnings not being saved / reloaded after application is closed, reopened and ‘show data’ button used.
Insecure warnings not visible in table if user clicks ‘no’ when prompted to view insecure content at the end of the scan but later.
