Answer / rajapages
Broken link refers to a hyperlink which does not work. It is
either pointing to a url or filename that is no longer
there, or pointing to one that was never there.

Answer / surii
Kumar, there is a difference between link and hyperlink.
Hyperlink : The Hyperlink control immediately navigates the
target URL when the user clicks on the control and the
request is not posted to server.
Link : The link first post the request to the server, then
navigates to the URL.
If the target page is not displayed when u click on the link
that link is called Broken link.

Answer / mrunal
Broken link is the link which on clicked redirected to the webpage that no more exist.
If you click on the broken link, you will get 404 Error.
You can manually check the link by typing the address in the web browser.

Answer / giriraj sharma
The target link which is not available is known as broken link.
To find broken links manually in the large website is too hectic work. To find broken links easily there is an helpfull tool "XENU".
