Abstract
Hypertext links are connections between documents or parts of documents. Ge nerally the ends of links are represented by some kind of a reference to a document or part of a document. When documents are moved or changed these r eferences may cease to resolve to the correct places. This paper reflects o n the causes of this problem and reviews techniques that may be used to mai ntain link integrity.
