ads not found on instant redirect page

    I am having trouble getting a wordpress blog to validate.

    I had it validated earlier in the week but then on the latest update it said i was not showing ads on www.coffeeblack.co.uk/vid.html

    i know there are no ads on this because it is an instant redirect to an affiliate link.

    i use quite a few redirects on a few sites and dont really want to come across this problem every time i have redirect pages up.

    also i have actually tried to manually ad the code into the redirect page and it doesnt change. i think the auto validate tool is looking at the affiliate landing page and seeing it as mine.

    any ways to get around this? do i need to exclude using robots.txt or similar?

    i am not sure how the validate bot works. if it works as a normal robot then will putting a block to that file and other redirects work?

    Your assistance if you please.

    Fryman please post on my thread i am starting you a fan club :)

    Coop doesn't work with redirects, you have to put the ads directly on the page you own

    yeah i have the ads on all of my pages on the site but i had setup a couple of redirects so i can use them in sigs etc to aff programs.

    one of them was www.coffeeblack.co.uk/vid.html

    the validation failed on this page and i have no idea how to fix it as the page redirects to another site.

    i tried including the ad code into the body of the page but this doesnt work.

    i take it that the ad validation is taking my /vid page as having the same content as the page it redirects to.

    any other ideas to get round this?
