Answer / rajapages
Broken link refers to a hyperlink which does not work. It is
either pointing to a url or filename that is no longer
there, or pointing to one that was never there.

Answer / surii
Kumar, there is a difference between link and hyperlink.
Hyperlink : The Hyperlink control immediately navigates the
target URL when the user clicks on the control and the
request is not posted to server.
Link : The link first post the request to the server, then
navigates to the URL.
If the target page is not displayed when u click on the link
that link is called Broken link.
