	I would like the proper instructions to modify things so that google will crawl my site and include the links. I have it set up static with hits turned off because google will not count the links so long as there is a hit count script being called between the hyperlink and the site that it is linking to , if the hits are turned on. I asked this in the beta forum but didnt have time to implement the instructions. Could you please give me the code that is needed so I can turn my hits back on and so that google will count all my links. Thanks, guru

Hey Miles,

I read your solution in the knowledge base but am not sure just how to implement this...

Answer:
Open tmplsearch.html and edit it so that the Title part of the link looks like the following:

!! title_without_link !!

The onClick part instructs the browser to open a window with the URL supplied. The !! hidden_url !! is replaced by the PowerSeek script that counts clicks and redirects end-users to the site of the link they clicked.

Note that the PowerSeek variables used in this explanation has spacing where there should be none present. Remove the spaces from the HTML code example above in the variable names. The spaces has been intentionally added becaus this Knowledge Base is Powered by PowerSeek.

Do we use the !!hidden_url!! variable in a hyperlink tag and if so, where does the onClick come in? Could you please post an example of what our tmpsearch.html code should look like.

Many thanks,

- Bruce

	<a href="!! url!!" onClick="window.open('!! hidden_url!!');">!!title_without_link!!</a> <a href="!! url!!" This part is the url to the link that is displayed. onClick="window.open('!! hidden_url!!');"> This part instructs the browser to load go.cgi that counts the hit/click and redirects the user the the web site of the link. !! title_without_link!! This part is the title without the link, but it is being linked because it is surounded by the <a href tag. The above has been tested and works. The only thing that will happen is that when the link is clicked, it will open in a new window. There is probably some other work around to have links not open in a new window. We'll check into it.
