Hi,<br /><br />I'm thinking of tryoing a new sponsor. They offer nice content so I want to give them a try.<br /><br />But I would like to count those clicks too. Is this a good way(also for pointing to another sponsor)<br /><br />gallerie <a href="http://www.gallerie.com/gal.html" target="_blank">www.gallerie.com/gal.html</a> point to <a href="http://www.gallerie.com/sponsor.html" target="_blank">www.gallerie.com/sponsor.html</a> and that page has a meta refresh 1 or 0 to <a href="http://www.sponsor.com/?id" target="_blank">www.sponsor.com/?id</a><br /><br />Will this way all hits be counted, or will I lose traffic this way to my sponsor becayse the ref code will not be in the header...?<br /><br />Andre

"Will this way all hits be counted, or will I lose traffic this way to my sponsor becayse the ref code will not be in the header...?"<br /><br />well it should work fine ...using a meta refresh the referrer is still retained (i think)...so i cant see how you could lose out <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> <br /><br />laters,<br />Chris

redirecting with htaccess would surely work, that way the refferer code is passed trough corrcectly<br /><br />or make your own php script wit a header function<br />header("Location: <a href="http://www.whatever.com?id=gfy");" target="_blank">http://www.whatever.com?id=gfy");</a>

Well I'm asking because I had the following problem.<br /><br />I had to go to secret.com ppl had to come from <a href="http://www.domain1.com" target="_blank">www.domain1.com</a> <br /><br />When I placed a txtlink on domain1.com it worked fine, but when I used a metarafresh it didn't work...<br /><br />Andre
