Format of Newsletter
I would greatly appreciate some help on this topic. In relation to the newsletter that is sent out I note that it sends out the URL's. Is there any way for the script (and which part to modify) to sent out the URL which includes my site plus the /cgi-bin/links/jump.cgi?ID=xxx? I want to replace the current actual URL with the above - as it provides some way for me to measure how effective different programs are that I publicise.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Clint.

In db_ultil.pl, sub build_new_links, change:

Code:
$rec{'Title'} (added: $rec{'Date'})
$rec{'URL'}
$des_q

to read:

Code:
$rec{'Title'} (added: $rec{'Date'})
$build_jump_url?ID=$rec{'ID'}
$des_q

I hope this helps.

Thanks for the information on including the Link's reference verse's the original URL address. This change improves the tracking of URL useage.

Will this change be undone in an upgrade?

Best regards,
