| Apr 24, 2017 at 21:40 | comment | added | Travis Bathurst | Thank you, not 100% sure why I started with Python. I had a buddy in high that was a real big python nerd so I figured that I would start learning that first. The reason I wanted to use selenium was because eventually I am going to build off this to check other features of my site and selenium seems to be a real good webkit for website testing. I do want to learn PHP. Figured I would get my feet wet with python first. Thank you for responding. | |
| Apr 24, 2017 at 21:39 | comment | added | Shawn | (cont.) My solution will also if you check the code status on say a permanent redirect, to capture the new updated url and update yours. | |
| Apr 24, 2017 at 21:31 | comment | added | Shawn | This was my solution using only curl in PHP; The reason I am including it is I show using just curl how to check for valid pages. It is possible the link will give you a temporary redirect but is still valid so you should check this condition. In addition my solution will only capture the header and will not load the full page. This will make your script super fast. I am not sure if you can do it in python but perhaps there is some useful pieces there. In my case I was using it to scan site links of around 300,000 links so speed was a concern. stackoverflow.com/a/21032909/1361532 | |

Cut away some of the chatter to focus on the actual question. Remove snippet syntax.

IMO using ii instead of i is kinda ugly.
