HTML 예시 / HTML examples <a href="">...</a> <a href="#">...</a> 검토 / Review: 페이지 이동인가, 화면 동작인가? / navigation or action?
Steps to verify
- Locate the label and placement.
- Define the expected action.
- Check actual click and keyboard behavior.
How to interpret the result
An empty-link signal alone does not prove a broken button. The tool does not reproduce script events or UI behavior.
Deciding what to do next
Use the intended destination for navigation and review element semantics for actions. Recheck the inventory and UI after editing.
Feature scope
Extract and classify fetched HTML links without visiting every destination for 404 checks. Script-generated links can be missing.
