Just a blatant plug, if people intend to get stuff from Rapid, if you do it via this link
http://www.rapidonline.com/
Then the Lurcher rescue gets a couple of percent.

Whenever an honest man discovers that he's mistaken, he will either cease to be mistaken or he will cease to be honest.

Hi Nick,
The link doesn't seem to work and it does seem to redirect with a referer or some such?

Works for me !
Takes me straight to the Rapid site.

It does go via a referrer, thats how the commission gets paid, but it should just redirect to something like

The last one doesn't redirect via the commission company, so probbaly doesnt earn any dosh, but not to worry. It may be your policy's prevent the javascript from doing what it should.

Nope first one didn't work for me either.
But I know what the problem is!
There's a 'www' missing from the front of rapidonline.com
So it should be:
http://redirectingat.com/?id=2376X58000 ... 75%2348775

Maybe turn this thread into a sticky to remind us.
We sometimes use Rapid for things other than electronics. Amazon too.
Much to learn there is.

As long as it doesnt annoy folk too much, I have done as Al suggested.
