Extract links from HTML code

For developers and auditors inventorying destinations in a snippet before a migration, rewrite or content review.

Collect every unique link from an HTML fragment, resolve relative paths and leave with a clean destination list ready for review.

How to use

Paste the base address that will be used to resolve relative links found in the snippet.
Add the HTML fragment that contains the link tags you want to inventory.
Run the extraction to get the list of unique destinations found in the code.
Check the relative links to confirm that they were converted into complete addresses.
Copy the final list for comparison with your sitemap, audit notes, or redirect plan.

Example

The sample includes a base address, an absolute link, a relative link, and a duplicate. After extraction, check that the list keeps only one entry per destination and that the relative path was resolved correctly.

Input

https://example.com/page
<a href="/contact">Contact</a> <a href="https://example.com/help">Help</a> <a href="/contact">Contact</a>

Output

https://example.com/contact
https://example.com/help

Limits and formats

The tool analyzes the supplied HTML fragment; it does not crawl a whole site or follow the links it finds.
Links generated by JavaScript at page load are not visible if the source code does not include them.
An incorrect base address produces resolved links that do not match your actual site.
Imported content must contain usable HTML, even if several file extensions are accepted.
Review mail links, anchors, and special protocols before reusing them in a migration.

Where processing happens

The extraction happens entirely in your browser. The HTML and base address you paste or import stay on your device and are not sent to any remote service. That makes it practical to audit a snippet without publishing it or creating an account.

Frequently asked questions

Does the tool follow links to check if they work?

No. It only extracts destinations from the HTML fragment. To learn whether a page responds, test the addresses separately with a link checker or a manual browser visit.

Why are some links missing?

The fragment may rely on JavaScript to build links, or the href may be hidden in an attribute the tool does not treat as a link. Check the raw HTML and include the relevant markup in the input.

How should I handle relative links?

Provide a base address that matches the original page. The tool uses it to turn relative paths into complete addresses, which makes migration or audit comparisons much clearer.
