How to use Filter in Fast URL Checker

Results can be filtered by any column. Filter can be active or not. If 'Filter' check box is checked than the report shows results filtered according to parameter (column) selected in the combo box on the right. If 'Invert Filter' is checked than filter criteria works the same but rows show are those which do not satisfy criteria. So if filter is set to look in Status Code column and search term is '200' it will show rows which don't have status code 200.

There are three types of search:

  • Contains: search string is contained anywhere in the column text and it is so for URL, Type, Reason, Final URL, Host,Document and Header
  • Begins with: This search type is only for Status Code parameter. In the end you can enter '4' as filter string and it will list all rows where Status code begins with '4', that is 401,404,405....To be more specific and filter only not found pages enter '404' as filter term
  • Less or equal to: This is search type for Response,Size, and Redirects columns. As filter parameter you can enter only numbers. In addition for Redirects column you can enter word 'loop' (or part of it) and only rows where redirection Loop is detected will be shown.

There are two indicators on the right in bold font:

  1. Total rows-showing total row count in report
  2. Filtered rows -showing filtered (visible) row count in report

Usage Examples:

-Show rows where URL returned status code 200 OK

In the combo box select 'Status Code', in filter term box enter '200' and check 'Filter' checkbox on the right.

-Show rows with response time less than 2 sec

In the combo box on the left select 'Response' in filter box enter '2' and check 'Filter' check box.

-Show only rows where redirects occur

Select 'Redirects' in combo box, type '0' in filter box and check 'Invert Filter' check box. Only rows with redirects>0 are shown.

-Filter rows where raw header contains additional links

Select 'Header' in combo box and enter 'Link:' in filter box,check filter to make it active. Now only rows where header contain 'Link" parameter are shown
