The link to the home page not working
Okay, when I click on the homepage link from the admin page I get an error that the page wasn't found. So I went in to the links.cfg and put a / after the URL for the homepage and then it worked. But now my cool, new, and top rated don't work because there is an // in the URL. I go back in to the links.cfg and take the / out that I put in and then the cool, new and top rated work but I get an error when I try to go to the homepage. How can I fix this? Thanks, Andy

Try typing the URL to your LINKS home page in the Location bar in your browser rather than clicking on the link from the admin.cgi file.

Eliot, it works if I type in http://links.poxy.net/portal/ but the script doesn't put a / after portal so I get an error. Is there a way to fix this?

What do you mean it doesn't work? I just visited your site and tested most of the links and they work.

The Home link does not work because it does not have a trailing /.

Yea...it does...I went to the URL you provided and it works fine, along with the other links from the Home Page.

Eliot,

Can you tell me why it is not working for me then? Because the home, cool, ratings, and new links do not work. Thanks, Andy

Try uncaching your browser and see if they work...If they do not...then manually change the URLs to the New, Cool, and Ratings pages in the template files.

This is so messed up. It is all linked to like http://links.poxy.net/portal no trailing / and it won't work but if I put a trailing slash there manually it works. I have no idea how to get a trailing / there.

You are repeating yourself....MANUALLY change all the URLs in the Template files to the pages mentioned before.

I have no more suggestions.

Good luck!

Sorry Eliot. But I doubt uncacheing a browser would put a trailing / on the end of a URL
