Hi All, I am looking to do some Keyword Targetting Ads and would require the query words to be pass onto a target url, for example as below, the keyword submitted to the search engine is palm pilot, any kind soul please advise on how I can pass in the values.


<A HREF="http://www.mydomain.com/search;abr=!ie;sz=468x60;kw=palm+pilot;ord=50834870586042360?"><IMG SRC="http://www.mydomain.com/search;abr=!ie;sz=468x60;kw=palm+pilot;ord=50834870586042360?" border=0 height="60" width="468"></A>

Please advise

If you use <%term%>, the space should be replaced with a plus sign.

Make sure that you have the following codes in your sub site_html_search_results:

Hi, %20 is space right? its not + right?

by the way, I have this in my sub site_html_search_results:

my $term = &urlencode ($in{'query'});

Cheers,

Yes, Spaces in Netscape are defined as %20.


Correct.
