Does anyone have some Javascript code that I can insert on the form to post a link that counts the characters in the description and keywords fields? You'd be able to press a button next to the text box and it would tell you how many words you typed in.
Thanks in advance!

Hey Aznknight...
I've got an idea for the mod that would make it much easier for users to post new links.
In the form for doing this, you could add a button that when clicked, opens up a browser window, so that the user can go to any webpage. Once they are there. The form should read the url, the MetaData = "description", for the description field and the MetaData = "content", for the keywords.
This would automate the whole process of properly indexing a new link with a minimum of manual typing.
BTW, you should error trap the description field and keywords field for maximum characters -- which gives an ADO error if exceeded.
Great mod!
Cheers!

Great Mod
Is it possible to add further "layers" of categories below the "sub-category level"?

it's hard coded for just categories and sub-categories. more layers would require alot of recoding.

I've just tried to install this onto a unix system with MySQL and hit a few problems. The system that I'm running on is case sensetive and some references to either table names or column names in the SQL is in lower case whereas the setup routine creates all the titles and names in block capitals.
One other problem... the column name "show" is a MySQL keyword, throwing up all sorts of errors in the install process as it fails abysmally to run the SQL command to build the LINKS table.

Great MOD. I am having one small problem. My install does not show the Rate This Link option. How do I turn it on/off?

I'm not sure what happened but the link name (not all) are disappearing from the links I've added to my links database. I cannot figure it out. There is no common theme to the ones that are missing. Some categories are working, some are not. Some links in a category are fine, others are not. The name of the link and the hyperlink are missing on the ones that are gone. I've checked my database and all of the data is there.
I haven't touched the code for some time and all of a sudden the hyperlinks/names are missing. The rest of the data for the links is fine and is being presented.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Your help is appreciated. You can see my problem/site at: http://ridingarizona.com/forum/listings.asp

I put a copy of my showlink.asp (which is the culprit, I suppose) file here: http://www.ridingarizona.com/forum/showlink.txt

Rick7165 posted some code to get Submit New Link Email that will send you a Email when someone submits a URL.
The code:
my_Conn.Execute (strSQL)
Body = "A new link has arrived for you to approve."
Body = Body & vbCrLf & "go to http://www.yourdomain.com/forums/admin_links_main.asp to approve."
Set Mailer = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
Mailer.To = "links@yourdomain.com"
Mailer.From = "links@yourdomain.com"
Mailer.Subject = "New link to approve"
Mailer.Body = Body
Mailer.Send
Set Mailer = nothing
%>
Now I'm wondering how I should do it if I'm using JMail instead?
What should the code look like?
