How to use AXS with Links
I'm posting this for the users who may have tried, but could not get AXS Site Tracking System from http://www.xav.com/scripts/axs/ to work properly on their site. My code may not quite match yours, as it has several mods in it (yahoo-style, nonenglish, & more), but it should be easy enough to decipher. Changes for this mod are in red.
To make your off-site links go through AXS, use something like this in the jump.cgi:
$goto ?
print "Location: http://your-url.com/cgi-bin/axs/ax.pl?$goto\n\n" :
&error ("Record not found ($in{$db_key})");
}
Then, in site_html_templates.pl:
<small>($numlinks)</small> |;And:
$output .= qq~<font color="#000000">, ~ if ($v ne $#{$subcategories{$subcat}} && $v <= 5);
$output .= qq~<font size="1"><A HREF="http://your-url.com/cgi-bin/axs/ax.pl?$url"> more</A><font color="000000">...</font>~ if ($v eq "5");
$v++;
}
Of course, change "your-url" to your URL.
Hope this helps! It's interesting to see how your visitors are using your site, and AXS is an easy-to-install and eas-to-use script.
Having a hard time getting things to show up nicely... looks OK in the editor, but after posting?? Third time theory. {Used basic editor this time!}

Code:
# Now let's send the user to the url.. $goto ?
print "Location: http://your-url.com/cgi-bin/axs/ax.pl?$goto\n\n" :
&error ("Record not found ($in{$db_key})");
}
Then, in site_html_templates.pl:
Code:
$output .= qq|<font face="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial" size=2><b><a href="http://your-url.com/cgi-bin/axs/ax.pl?$url">$category_name</a></b> <small>($numlinks)</small> |;
Code:
$output .= qq~<A HREF="http://your-url.com/cgi-bin/axs/ax.pl?$suburl">$subcategory_name</A>~ if ($v <= 5); $output .= qq~<font color="#000000">, ~ if ($v ne $#{$subcategories{$subcat}} && $v <= 5);
$output .= qq~<font size="1"><A HREF="http://your-url.com/cgi-bin/axs/ax.pl?$url"> more</A><font color="000000">...</font>~ if ($v eq "5");
$v++;
