Link Code Errors

    take a look at www.virtuehosts.com and look at the bottom page under any category. Why does the link code have "\" in them? The links will not work because of this. Yet, my static text link for "small business web design" works fine.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks,
    Tony

    Not sure, but you need to fix that within your category script. Looks like it probably has something to do with magic quotes, although it's not coming from a form, so not sure why that would be.

    A quick hack (although doesn't get to the root of the problem) would be to surround the ad variables with stripslashes() like so:
    echo stripslashes ($ad_network[0]);

    ok another problem (sorry)

    for my virtuehosts account when I click on validate/calc weight everyonce in awhile it will give me an error saying :
    "Ads not found on http://www.virtuehosts.com/link.php?n=70&url=http://www.hostcentric.com%2"

    whic is because it's an out going link with tracking.... but if I were to click on it a few more times it will go away and say everything is ok...

    Takes up to an hour for the internal weight to be recalculated for new accounts.

    Might want to add /link.php to your robots.txt as a disallow to make it easier.
