How to use a encode html javascript in a <a href>?

crazyhorse · 07-27-2004, 06:09 AM

I have affilaite links that give an HTMl encode output like this

<script type="text/javascript">document.write('\u0068\u0074\u0074\u00 70\u003a\u002f\u002f\u0077\u0077\u0077\u002e\u0076 \u0037\u006e\u002e\u0063\u006f\u006d\u002f\u0072\u 0075\u006c\u0065\u007a')</script>

But i would like to use this script in a <a href="www.v7n.com/rulez".

The url www.v7n.com/rulez is the same as the above javascript.

Any suggestions.

Put this between <head></head> tags:[code:1:63a2bad449]<script type="text/javascript">
function changeLoc(target){
window.location = target
}
</script>[/code:1:63a2bad449]
And this is the code for the link:
[code:1:63a2bad449]<a href="javascript:changeLoc('\u0068\u0074\u0074\u00 70\u003a\u002f\u002f\u0077\u0077\u0077\u002e\u0076 \u0037\u006e\u002e\u0063\u006f\u006d\u002f\u0072\u 0075\u006c\u0065\u007a');"><script type="text/javascript">document.write('\u0068\u0074\u0074\u00 70\u003a\u002f\u002f\u0077\u0077\u0077\u002e\u0076 \u0037\u006e\u002e\u0063\u006f\u006d\u002f\u0072\u 0075\u006c\u0065\u007a')</script></a>[/code:1:63a2bad449]

Link on the status bar looks very scary this way. You may remove "target" variable in JavaScript and write your link directly there if you want.

If you move your mouse over the link you'll see something like this on the status bar:[code:1:2b95d83ecf]javascript:changeLoc('\u0068\u0074\u0074\u0070\u00 3a\u002f\u002f\u0077\u0077\u0077\u002e\u0076\u0037 \u006e\u002e\u0063\u006f\u006d\u002f\u0072\u0075\u 006c\u0065\u007a');[/code:1:2b95d83ecf]
Users like me check the link, that they'll click, most of the time. I'd think twice before clicking something like that. :wink:

You can always add the following code to the anchor tag.

[code:1:4918c5c2b4]onMouseOver="window.status='Click Here';return true;" onMouseOut="window.status='';return true;"[/code:1:4918c5c2b4]

Change your link to the following. You can also add your own text instead of "click here" to "http://whatever.com".

[code:1:4918c5c2b4]<a href="javascript:changeLoc('\u0068\u0074\u0074\u00 70\u003a\u002f\u002f\u0077\u0077\u0077\u002e\u0076 \u0037\u006e\u002e\u0063\u006f\u006d\u002f\u0072\u 0075\u006c\u0065\u007a');" onMouseOver="window.status='Click Here';return true;" onMouseOut="window.status='';return true;"><script type="text/javascript">document.write('\u0068\u0074\u0074\u00 70\u003a\u002f\u002f\u0077\u0077\u0077\u002e\u0076 \u0037\u006e\u002e\u0063\u006f\u006d\u002f\u0072\u 0075\u006c\u0065\u007a')</script></a>[/code:1:4918c5c2b4]
