hide affiliate codes ? .htaccess ??

Is there a way in .htaccess pick out certain urls in a page (affiliate links) and some how make them appear clean urls?

example: lets say http://www.gfy.com?myaccount
could actually look like http://www.gfy.com to the surfer ?

You could use mod_rewrite, mouseovers, javascript etc.

For quick and dirty just use mouseovers. That'll take care of 95% of your users (those running IE).

JAvASCRIPT DAWG! USE IT

Code:

<a onMouseOver='window.status="http://www.someurl.com/";

return true' onMouseOut='window.status="Done";

return true'

href="http://www.someurl.com?affiliateid=29013">

http://www.someurl.com/</a>

I always disguise my affiliate links with .htaccess

Ex:

RewriteRule ^movies/full_length_porn.wmv$ http://www.affiliate.com?code

Then I link to mydomain.com/movies/full_length_porn.wmv
Also suggest blocking spiders accessing /movies , in your robots.txt

is this an old thread?

oh well, is there a quick solution for that? than using this code?

Code:

<a onMouseOver='window.status="http://www.someurl.com/";

return true' onMouseOut='window.status="Done";

return true'

href="http://www.someurl.com?affiliateid=29013">

http://www.someurl.com/</a>

that would be a lot of work if you do put this code for your hundreds of links :)
