Hi,

I have an Url that redirects to a different Url. The first 'redirected from' Url shows up in the Url History List (UHL) just fine. But I would like the second 'redirected to' Url (the destination Url) to show in the UHL too.

I understand that the UHL contains only typed Url's, i.e. that a user has manually typed in. But is there any way, I wonder, to get the 'redirected to' Url (that they didn't actually type in, but were redirected to) to show up in the UHL as well?

Any help you can offer me would be greatly appreciated... the project pays well.

Ru talking abt vistor tracking/referral history sort of thing?.

If so, from what i gather.. u have 2 links in which u want to track back the 2nd url correct.

short answer.. no..
well there might be someone who knows lol.

I don't know if it's possible, at least if I understand what you're asking for.

Are you doing a html redirection, or is it a script?

Like in perl:

print "Location: http://www.example.com\n\n";

or php:

header ("Location: http://www.example.com");


If you're using html for the redirection, maybe move to a script based option, if that might be feasible for you. I don't know if that would help, though, I've never paid attention to the secondary url in my logs.


Another option is to create your own tracking system - if your site is dynamic already it wouldn't take much of anything to setup an admin page & add a function to your existing pages to log traffic. However, if you have a static website it'd be a bit harder, but you could log traffic/pages with SSI even if you're using a static website.

Maybe that'll give you a couple of ideas.
