Dublicates links promblem, when add new link.

Hello, I have some kond of problem with add new links in Links SQL 2.0.1 System. How I can make so, what at a stage addition of the new link there was a filtration under the URL and Name for duplication? Thus simply to not suppose addition of new link if the link to this address (URL) already exists.

My Duplicate_Check plugin should do this;

http://www.ultranerds.com/cgi-bin/details/28.html

Its a free plugin; but it does half of what you want.

1) They submit a URL to your site.
2) They submit it again (either by accident, or on purpose) - and are then shown an error message, as it already found the URL in the database.

Very simple... but it seems to limit spammers :)

If Plugin Hooks is enable - when Somebody add new dublicate link, server report: Internal Server Error. The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator... Crazy

If Plugin Hooks is disable - OK. Mad

LOGs ERROR:
[error] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX] Premature end of script headers: /_some_path_/add.cgi

Hi. Sorry about that. I don't see how this bug keeps coming back in again :(

Just after (in /admin/Plugins/Duplicate_Check.pm);

Code:
if ($chk_dup) {

...you need to add;

Code:
 print $IN->header();

... so it looks something like;

Code:
  		if ($chk_dup) { 
print $IN->header();
        $error_show = "The URL you entered already seems to be in our database, either live, or awaiting validation!"; 
  			print Links::SiteHTML::display('error', { error => $error_show  }); 
        exit; 
     }

Hope that helps.

Cheers
