interpreted = N
texte = Makes sense. They want the direct link for their SEO. How about you use Jquery.com? I haven't tested this but this should work 1. Load jquery 2. Post function on page 3. Create link and call to function
client url This should work. The keepempty div is where jquery will "push" the results of the call to your server. It may not be needed. If it works, you can extend the pinger function to pass a variable from the link so you can use one generic webdna page for tracking all urls. Hope this helps. -----Original Message----- From: Steve Craig [mailto:steve@asylumweb.com] Sent: Monday, December 01, 2008 7:25 AM To: talk@webdna.us Subject: Re: [WebDNA] Record click-thrus Any particular reason why, the reason I ask is that the page I use would never be seen by client, it responds very quickly at the server side then redirects to the client page.
