Small problem posting a link to a tracker info page

Hmm, the board seems to be garbleing a link I'm posting for my Lunar release.

I'll give it a shot here:
http://208.37.28.56:6969/stats.html?...e90586ea4587dd

The url isn't supposed to have a space after the "?" or a break tag at the end :grazy: I'm not posting those in there, hit quote and see the proper url. Anyone know how to stop it from doing this? Putting it in quotes and even taking away the url tags doesn't do it...

http://208.37.28.56:6969/stats.html?info_hash=414c0574aedfa3e881888b020ce90 586ea4587dd
maybe this?

Anyone know a fix :qq:

Fixed the </ br>, not sure about the space.

Yeah... Dammit, I just looked at the uptime of 41 days the other day and though we were doing great ^^;;; Oh well, nothings perfect.

Hmm, the space still lingers even with the code tag :wacko: Good try Ace, least it got rid of the break. Pity it wasn't the other way around, I can live with the break, the space makes the url non-functional :\

Easy, the link is too long remove one d and it'll work just fine. Could change the ?info_hash= to ?hash= and it would work (As long as you modify the hmtl pages to go with it)

Ok here's a work around;

make a new html file on the tracker called lunar.html

use this as the html code;

Code:

<html> <head> <title>Redirecting to the correct page...</title> </head> <body> <SCRIPT> top.location.href = 'http://linkgoeshere'; </SCRIPT> If your browser didn't redirect you to the correct page then click <a href="http://linkgoeshere">here</a>. </body> </html>

Replace linkgoeshere with the link to the correct info hash (Do -not- remove the '' nor the http://). Then link to the lunar.html file from that topic instead of the direct page.

Aye, I've looked at a few of the admin options I have on the tracker and they scare me :dizzy: I'd probably fubar something if I fiddled with it. I'll just take the easy road out and point everybody at the main page or something :whistle:

Well, I restarted the tracker yesterday. Lets see if it stays up for longer now. Not sure what caused it to crash. But anyway, I don't know what's causing this problem, I'll look into it if it's still happening..

I haven't noticed the tracker being down in a while. I guess I just didn't check it at the right time.

I know that it has been over a month since I had to restart it.

Thinking of which, how do you restart it? Is it within the power of BT admins? Cause me and Mushindo always just nag whenever it goes down :D If it's straight forward I wouldn't mind knowing how to do it :wacko:

Most likely though a console ;).

Could always upload that page to some free website thingy and redirect to there I guess :p.

Nah, too much work. I just posted this link to a seach:
http://208.37.28.56:6969/index.html?search=Lunar

It shows prettymuch all the important info :nod: I just find it odd that the board muddled up that other link :wacko:
