    I'm hiding affiliate links on my wordpress site using

    http:// mysite/ affiliatefolder/ affiliatelink.php

    Then using

    <?php
    header("Location:http://www.myaffilite.com/affredir.cfm?myaffiliatelink");
    ?>

    in my affiliate folder

    I made a sitemap, submitted it, and am getting warnings for too many redirects in my urls.

    Do I need to make a robots.txt file disallowing my affiliate file?
    Would that be enough?

    sitemap has no link with your affiliate file

    Sitemap is simply a xml file

    Where are you getting error?

    I guess they detected the redirect. OK maybe a .htaccess redirect will be useful. Post the full redirection details.
