URL Redirects

[Kelly Lynam]

So I'm having this problem with Yahoo! truncating my URL redirects. Basically, the Tracking URLs that I've supplied are showing in the system, but not when a user clicks from Yahoo! Search to visit my site. What gives?

Anyone else have this problem? It's so strange, it's not like the URL to more than 255 chars, and it's only happening for one of my campaigns.

Strange. And a pain in the neck.

double check that you have not made an error and say left a space somewhere.... also do a search at Yahoo for restricted symbols....

It doesn't seem to be an extra space or a funky character, and it's so odd that the tracking is working fine across other efforts like Google and Miva - just some random quirk I suppose...They've got their tech team "researching the matter." Who knows when I'll get any resolution!

We have this problem on some of our dynamically-generated pages, but it's consistent across page types - meaning, the tracking universally works on our static pages, and universally doesn't work on the dynamic ones. Could that be part of your issue?

does your tracking add a question mark "?" to the url? If so, try replacing it with an "&" and see if that works.
