Hi,

You should just be able to add them in. What seems to be the problem?

Cheers,

Hi, the problem is when the browser jump to no http// links: news:, etc.

Iexplore 6 = Page no found

Netscape 6.2 = Works fine or "moved permanently here" but works with all links or any software propietary link, newsgroups, etc.

Opera = works fine.

The problem is aparently originated only in iexplore 6. Anyone have the same problem?

Thanks.

Hmm, you could edit link.html and put:

Code:
<%if URL like 'http://'%>
<a href="<%db_cgi_url%>/jump.cgi?ID=<%ID%>"><%Title%></a>
<%else%>
<a href="<%URL%>"><%Title%></a>
<%endif%>


So it only tries and sends http:// links through jump.cgi.

Cheers,

Alex

Thanks Alex, but in this case, the counter only work with the http:// links, and the others links no http:// are permanently in 0 hits. Is correct?

I have another idea, it is possible include another template, and when the user click in the jump.cgi appears a popup window with the URL ?

Ex:

Categories (click in category) Links (click in link) and the jump.cgi open a popup window similar to link template, but only with the title and the url.. identical to several download sites (popup -> click here to download)

How to create this popup window for each click to jump.cgi?ID ??

This idea is similar to the detail pages, but the difference is that the counter works.

Thank you very much.
