Reporting tools for viewing an index reorganized and enhanced

We have reorganized and expanded the tools available for viewing a search index. All of the tools are now accessible from the Retrieve details about the last update of an index link in the Actions section of the Account Settings page. These tools are available:

• Index summary: page count, date of last update, and list of start URLs
• List of URLs for the documents in the index
• The meta data for each URL, including the date (as interpreted by the search engine), the page title, description, keywords, and key phrases.
• The link structure of the index. For each document in the index, it lists the documents it points to and the other documents pointing to it.
• The broken links encountered during spidering.
• The PDF files ignored. Sometimes PDF files are used as a container for scanned documents. The scanned documents are pictures to the search index and so are not scanned. To save download bandwidth, these image PDF files are not reread.
