There is a limit on the length of a GET parameter. It's best to do it via a POST instead.

No their isn't. The only way your limited is by how many characters the browser can handle. For most browsers this is a few thousand which means no problem. The problem is with some older versions of IE which can only handle 2,083 characters but that's still a shit load of links. Currently his link checker stops at 75 links. 2,083 characters is at least 100 links so your fine.

Although it's old it's a good reference as most modern browsers will have no problems and it's the older ones you need to worry about. http://www.boutell.com/newfaq/misc/urllength.html

I've built this using this idea and have it working on a site fine. It works perfectly and is incredibly fast.

Thanks.

About the update.
If you want just use a different id for the $_GET function for the update. Right now your using url=XXXXX but for the update you could use links=XXXXX which will mean all the links on everyone's site still go to the page which is what you want from a Google point of view. You can easily have a if ($_GET == url) then do the old way and else if ($_GET == links) do the new way.

Your right there is a limit. Using post tho i would have to have them make a form but then again its prob best. If i go this route i can have them send other values as well hidden ones.

Your right its a browser limit. But they do have limits. But as you have said its big enough not to worry about.

I am currently using this. I would like to see where the member checking links does not leave our site. Great work though.

Sorta impossible as the script is on another site. Best you can do is create a phpup window which shows the information they can close when their finished with and remain on your site.
 
Why not make a javascript plugin for sites which takes the links off the page, then opens a popup with your site, with the links in the url. So like
/Link-Checker/?links[]=http://rapidshare.com/files/1986/ffafsad.rar&links[]=http://rapidshare.com/files/8796/jhhkh.rar

Already have it :)

but you dont have to send in an array of links just send in a string of links for example:

http://immortalxx.com/Link-Checker/...To.Hell.2010.DVDRip.XviD-DUBBY.part4.rar.html
 
i do have a version for vb.4.x forgot to upload let me take a look at my happys version it might become the official one :)

EDIT: his whole page is very nicely done, Thanks for the modification Mr. Happy :)

EDIT: now hosted at immortalxx.com: http://immortalxx.com/Install-Link-Checker-addon-vbulletin-4-x

Now hosted the 3.x version as well: http://immortalxx.com/Install-Link-Checker-addon-vbulletin-3-x

Soon I will update all of the mods to be hosted at immortalxx.com to save time from downloading.

Also updating all pages and modifications, for easy access. And working on making it load in a small popup box on ur site, so not a full new page loaded
 
No problem. The main thing it does it transfer the links in the url instead of you having to curl the page so it should be a lot faster, especially on slower loading sites.
