Import Pointing Directories with @ at the end from Links2 to LinksSQL
When importing from Links2 to LinksSQL, )all categories in Links2 that have the @ at the end of their names)
AND
(have the directory names that they suppose to point-to in the "Description" fields point to any directory OUTSIDE the current direcfory),
then these links do not work and point to empty pages (no information in them).
Example, say a country called Egypt that is a subcategory of Middle_East,
"Middle_East/Egypt"

Then this link works fine,

Egypt ===>
page.cgi?g=Middle_East%2FEgypt%2Findex.html;d=1

While the pointer does not work, even the pointer have:
"Middle_East/Egypt" in description:

Egypt@ ===>
page.cgi?g=African_Media%2FEgypt_%2Findex.html;d=1

It seems it is not reading anything before the last "/" .. so it is reading Egypt but not the directory before it... means it is always starting from the current directory (African_Media) instead of the actual directory (Middle_East) where the real category exists.

Thanks
Mark

Afraid I've never done this - maybe worth contacting GT, to see if they have any suggestions?
