My website relied heavily on Cyber-Junkie's redirect script. He has decided to disgrace it with a "donate page" that scares people and doesn't answer when I ask to buy the script. I need someone to write an alternative that will allow someone to click on a link in an option box and be redirected to the file itself. Please write me at [email protected] or [email protected] to discuss details and rate. I can pay via PayPal after completion of work.

We'd need more details... how would you like this? ubb integrated, seperate page, etc? you can't just say "it needs to redirect a user to a file" we need to know everything you want it to be and everything you want it to do...

thanks to google I was able to find the info.

all this seems to be is


http://www.domain.net/redirect.cgi?url=http://www.alforadmin.com

that would redirect to my site.

This is actually quite easy.

Debbie, did he also count the amount of times the redirect went to a certain page, or was it just the redirection?

If it's just the redirection, that's easy to do, and the logging wouldn't be that hard either

I'm releasing the script I wrote for free. You can view the info at the above link.

Ian, I tried to plug in your script - example section Report Links - Jamaica - Montego Bay Area Resorts in http://www.tropictravelonline.com/sandalsbeachesreports.html - the Ocho Rios section below is the old Cyber Junkie one. I don't care about counting redirects. I only want to have the menu option actually go to the web page of the trip report. I altered the redirect.cgi and put a path in, but it doesn't work. I'm playing with it right now.

This particular page is not integrated w/ ubb. That would be nice in the future, but at the moment, it doesn't do that.

Code
#!/usr/bin/perl
# Ian's redirect script

use strict;
use CGI qw( :standard );
use Fcntl;

use vars qw(%in);
use constant SEVENSEVENSEVEN => 0777;
use constant SIXSIXSIX => 0666;

%in = map{
my @z = param($_);
( scalar(@z) > 1 ?
( $_ => join(",", @z) ) :
( $_ => $z[0] )
)
} param();

print redirect($in{url});

exit(0);
is all your should need for that.

I got what I had to work. I didn't have the cgi file chmod at 755. I will save this one, too! Thanks!

If used a lot, the php version could be less server intensive. The file is also a little smaller, and could be nice for anyone with cgi. Of course this means you need PHP installed.

Both versions now include the ability to not log, just forward.
