Please be patient with me.--- Your messageDear Sir,Please reply on my suggestion.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Dear Sir,Thank you for the prompt answer.The questions of the technical support refer to individual adaptations of codes. Installations –and Configuration support can be work out, soon as I get to know the Software.A German – Version of your Website is no problem at all. The Design and the Structure stay the same, just the HTML-Version has to be translated to German Language. Than the selling, to the German market, can be done by your Website.Free Copies are very nice, but every normal participant, of the Affiliate Program receives already 20% commission, for nearly doing nothing. Please think about the cost of translating the Software and Website. Ok, this can be done in my office, but I got to pay my employees also. My proposal would be a share of all translated German-Versions. If Customers come from our site and order something, then it would be alright if you would give additional 20% to us. To promote the Sale we would put every single Version over Link lists and German-Language, Script-Portals.Faithfully yoursMichael Grosch-----------Last message---------------------------------------------I am interested, I've been thinking of other language versions for a while now. The only thing that worries me is the technical support. Tech questions can be complicated enough in english. Can you see a way round this?Could you also make a german version of my site? Where i would sell the german versions?You would get free copies of everything for the conversion and 20% commission of sales referred from your site.--- Your messageDear Sir or Madam,We would like to introduce our Firm to you.We are a young Internet-Business from Bensheim, Germany.

AllAffiliatePro is our top selling product, and so this is a very important job. You'll be working from the AllAffiliatePro Flat File version, so it'll be a similar task to what you are doing at the moment to ASRS Pro. I just hope I'll have the flat file version finished in time for you, it's setting the new CosmicPerl.com standard for User interface, features, ease of installation, and documentation.Please make your next contact to me a new inquiry.--- Your messageThank you.I've understood you.As for new inquiry, of course, I don't mind.And I have one more question for you: what will be my next project? I'm asking, because, may be, it's necessary for me to prearrange myself to it: order literature (sometimes, it's necessary to order books from Moscow or St.Petersburg with the aim of web shops) or buy software.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, Ok, lets try and clear this one up once and for all.At the end of the day there are going to be just two scripts. Let's call them ASRS Flat and ASRS Database.ASRS Flat can be installed on either NT or Unix, and it will run perfectly fine. It will use a flat file database regardless of which operating system it is installed on.ASRS Database can also be installed on either NT or Unix, and it will run perfectly fine. It will use MySQL if it is installed on Unix, and it will use MSAccess if it is installed on NT.So the ASRS Database version will need routines for both MySQL and Access and run the correct routines depending on OS.I hope that clears it all up.P.S. Would you mind starting a new inquiry, this one is getting pretty long to say the least. I will not remove this inquiry so that we can both keep it for reference.--- Your messageHello.I want to ask you: will it be enough for ASRS (I mean flat version) to work under NT and Linux/Unix?Or you want it to be absolutely universal?If you don't want it to be so universal I can change script, starting spider and make it more reliable.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, Yes that's it, Access for NT and MySQL for Unix. I haven't as yet had a chance to have a good look at the code.--- Your messageHello!Thank you.£180 is fine.And, of course, I'm ready to fix everything, you would like.Aa for versions, I didn't mean two different versions for NT and UNIX. I was talking about MSAccess and MySQL versions.Or, may be, you mean, you want to use MSAccess for NT and MySQL for UNIX. Am I right? Can you explain it to me, please?As for DBM version of ASRS, it doesn't depend on OS, and even spider starting isn't bound with some concrete system. So it can be run under Windows98, NT, LINUX or OS/2.Start script is made with the aim of abilities of JavaScript.Did you look at routine, running spider?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, We used to have two separate versions of our software, but we found that this became a problem when it came to updating, and removing bugs after release, etc. Things are a lot easier when you have a script that is both Unix and NT universal, detecting which system it is installed on, then running the correct code. I'm sending you a copy of the latest AllAffiliatePro which has server type detection, and NT and Unix routines (such as sending email, etc), this should give you an idea of what I'm talking about. I know the coding may be a bit anoying, but it works best all round. Shall we say £180 for the universal version? I also need to look at ASRS Pro V2 again, there may be a couple of small features I want added.--- Your messageExcuse me, I haven't made the script as whole. I've just made some procedures, so I can say already, that it will be more compact and quick. To tell the truth, I would be able to send you normal MySQL version not earlier than in two weeks. By the way, why do you want to make both MySQL and Access version as one program. It will be much more functionally to make two different scripts for different platforms.As for pay, in fact, I was to buy some literature about SQL and Perl DBI. As you know, computer literature is very expensive in our country. Some books have the same price as english ones. For example "Perl DBI programming" by Alligator Dekhart. So I had to pay about 40 USD for books.And, I think, the same situation will be So, excuse me, may be, it will be possible for you to pay me £100 for MySQL version and £100 for Access.Of course, I don't positively enforce this price.Won't it be very expensive for you?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, It shouldn't be too difficult, as you have already done the script, it's just a case of swapping the file handles for database calls. Shall we say £100? Plus this script must be for MySQL and Access, unix and NT universal. Not two separate scripts for MySQL and Access, but one script.--- Your messageHello.By the way, how much will you pay me for MySQL version?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello.Don't worry. I don't need any special info. It was simply interesting for me, how do you work with mySQL. So, the next versions will be for Oracle and MSAccess?By the way, database format of MySQL is also very convenient. With its aim, I'll decrease size of script, economize a lot of disk space and simplify the database structure. I think, you may recommend it for really serious projects.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, Currently I don't have any MySQL versions of my scripts. What sort of information do you need? I haven't seen many hosts that support Bearkley_DB.--- Your messageHello.Can you send me some of your scripts for MySQL?I'd like to see, how do you organize some things.Thank you.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello!By the way, there is one database technology, that will be the best for ASRS. I mean Bearkley_DB. It can work like hash database, but without limitations. It will work quicker and will demand much less disk space for data storage. But, of course, we will think about it after MySQL and MSAccess versions.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, It needs to work with both MySQL and MSAccess. For the Nt users. Use the Perl DBI. I haven't had chance to test the last version you sent me. I hope to test it on Unix and NT this week.--- Your messageHello!As for MySQL version: do you want to make it by using own MySQL language? To my mind, it would be much more quick and effective to use functions of Perl API.What do you think of it?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello.I've just sent you new 'Easy install'.It should be located to directory 'asrs'.If it's ok, I will send you complete version with fixed documentation.By the way, what do you think about my specification?Is it ok?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Thank you. Don't worry. I have a time both exams and ASRS.As for MySQL version, while you will test ASRS more properly, I'll think at the structure of the database of the SQL-version. I don't want only to transform ASRS for MySQL, I want to upgrade it, using approvals of SQL-database, and I have some ideas about it.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, Don't mess up your exams over this. Get it to me in your own time. I'll look at admin.cgi when i get the chance.--- Your messageHello!I've just sent you version of admin.cgi.Please, tell, what do you think about it.I'll try to fix install.cgi quickly.Excuse me, I'm working very slow now. That's because, I'm passing exams now, and soon I'll take one of the most difficult and important exams of my speciality, so sometimes I don't have enough time.As for WindowsNT, I've made all the scripts independant on operating system and platform. To tell the truth, is wasn't easy to make universal spider starter.So, I think, the reason is that not all the necessary modules are installed.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi, Also does it run under WinNT? From what I've seen of the code it dosen't.Hello, The change password form can go on the page, but link to pages for delete and variables. Also could you add the spider on/off to this page. Would it be possible to make delete multiple, i.e. 10 text box's. I would need your bank details and have to look into the cost of doing this, it may be more than western union.Hope you are enjoying your holidays.--- Your messageHello!By the way, how do you think, will it be better to make admin menu:Delete siteChange variablesChange passwordor would it be better to make three forms at one page?The amount of variables is not very big (I think, twice less than amount of guestbook options).install.cgi is really incorrect. In fact, as I understood, there was another version of install.cgi, but I've accidentally changed it by this non-working file.What about money transfer?Bye!-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi, There is a copy of cfg.cgi outside the asrs folder, it was put there by install.cgi along with admin.cgi, deleting.cgi, gb.cgi and writecfg.cgi. None of them run, just producing blank pages, or 500 errors. What would be best for the admin, would be to have 1 file called manager, or admin.cgi which contains the code for delete, cfg & password.cgi. So you only have to log in one, then on the admin page you can select to display the cfg page, or the password page, or the delete page. This is easiest from the users point of view. Belive me, most of my customers are incompetant, unlike us programmers. The usage guide does not mention calling cfg.cgi for the configuration. Also could you include an explaination of how to edit the template files.We are getting there.--- Your messageHello!Management area is presented by 3 separate scripts:cfg.cgi (script for changing variables)delete.cgi (script for deleting unnecessary sites)password.cgi (script, changing password)Isn't it enough?What other admin features would you like to have?You're quite right, it will be more convenient, if I built password.cgi in cfg.cgi.But, I think, there is no need to combine delete.cgi and cfg.cgi. Their purposes are very different.I will look through installing scripts more detaily. Excuse me. When I was working on guestbook, there were also probles with install.cgi. As for money transfer, there were so-called christmas holidays, and I was able to make enquiries only yesterday. To tell the truth, there is no possibilities for me to get money by check. But you can make transfer from your account to my by means of bank, not by Western Union. Will it be more convenient for you?Thank you!Bye!I'll correct install.cgi as soon, as possible.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, I'm just checking ASRS Pro now. I'll list changes to make below:-1. install.html - it says to open file ...program\install.cgi in step one. The file is in a different location.2. There are a few things to note with install.cgi:- The idea of install.cgi is that the main variables get configured. Not just chmoding of files. So once installed the program is ready to run. Other, more customisable variables can be configured later from the management area. Also the chmod check isn't working as adminpass.txt does not exist. Plus the convention you have in install.cgi "../asrs/adminpass.txt" will not work. I also don't understand why the install script isn't in the ASRS folder, but is in the cgi-bin, it should be removed after install anyway. --- Scratch that, I see whats happening now. But i still think it may be easier to keep it all in the asrs folder in the cgi-bin.3. Could you incorporate password.cgi into the management script.4. I can't seem to find the management area. I don't see it mentioned in the docs. Am I missing something? To give you an example of how our new management area's look visit:-http://www.cosmicflame.com/temp/cgi-bin/aap/manager.cgi?want=adminuser: adminpass: passwordFrom here you can configure variables, change password, etc. (By the way this is also the script I want you to do a MySQL version of) If you want a copy of the code, I can send it to you.I hope this hasn't disheartened you. The script is looking really good. Oh, and MERRY CHRISTMAS for the 7th!--- Your messageHello, Would it be possible for you to get a bank account so that I can send you normal cheques? Western Union is expensive, and I have to go into city. You can get started on the MySQL version if you are sure the flatfile has no bugs.--- Your messageHello.Yes, I've received money, but only yesterday.There's a problem with those bank: it works from 9:00 to 15:30.So it's possible to receive money only on holidays.And I did it yesterday.So, thank you very much!And Happy New Year!How do you, when will we start our next project? (MySQL version)-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Did you receive the payment?--- Last messageHello, Merry Christmas! I sent the Payment a few days ago, on Saturday, sorry I forgot to tell you. The number is 8258013226. Hope it's with you in time for christmas.And a happy new YEAR!--- Your messageMerry Christmas!-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello!Yes, I'd like to get my pay by Western Union.$215 is fine.My name is Maksim Nikolaevich NikolaevMy location is Pskov, RussiaBy the way, how do you think, when will it be possible for you to send me my pay?Thank you.Bye.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi!+ Sorry, I've been really busy lately. I still haven't had chance to look at it. I think it'll be best to leave the MySQL version for the time being until I have tested the flatfile, there are probably a few thing's I'll want changing, unless you wouldn't mind making any changes to both? It may be a while before I can test it. How do you want the payment sent? Cheque or Wester Union again? It's £200 (ASRS) + £15 (programmers referred) so thats £215.--- Your messageHello!What's up?What do you think of the flat version, SQL version and my pay?May be, you were busy and simply forgot to answer my letter?-----------Last message--------------------------------------------------------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello!I've just sent you full version of ASRS pro V2.I think, may be, if you don't have time for testing now, it won't be verydifficult for you to pay me money before the Christmas? As you now, Christmas in Russia is celebrated on the 7-th of January.So if you send me money after 25-th December, most likely I'll receivethem only afte the 7-th January. But, to tell the truth, it wouldbe very pleasant for me to receive my pay before the holidays (in orderto buy gifts and celebrate New Year). But, of course, if this isacceptable and possible for you.If you are agree, I'll begin to make SQL-version right now, not waiting you to test ASRS.And when you have time for my flat version, I'll fix everything, you like.Thank you.Bye.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi, MySQL, It shouldn't take to long as you say, you already have the guides and code, it's just swapping the flatfile code for MySQL calls. Do you know how to do other databases, such as MSAccess, Oracle, etc. I can give you a price after we see how long it takes. What about the AllAffiliatePro MySQL? Are you interesed?--- Your messageHello!So, about flat version: I also hope to complete it befor the Christmas.If there won't be a lot of bugs in my script, we will complete thework not later than in two weeks.As for SQL-version, to tell the truth I can't tell somethiungabout term right now. There are two reasons:1) For me this is the first large MySQL project.2) After the New Year I'll take exams. So, may be, my time will bemore limited.On the other hand, this project won't demand a lot of time, becauseflat version is ready.As for pay, I also don't know.And what do you think of it?Bye!-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello.Thank you.To tell the truth, I thought, you would like to test it before completion. May be, you would like me to change something.As for install cgi, I'll make it very quick.So, as far as I undersdand, the main thing, I have to do is to write user guide.I hope to finish it by the end of week or even earlier. As you understand, user guide is very important thing, so we shouldn't hurry with it. And how do you think, when will you complete testing of the program?Do you have any notes right now?What do you think about my specification?Bye-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi, £200 is fine. I was going to quote that originally, but thought if I quoted £200 you would want £250, etc. Funds aren't to high at the moment. But if I get ASRS and the guestbook to sale then money should go up. When is the likely final completion date? Before Christmas?Also how long do you think the MySQL version will take, and how much do you want for it? I am almost finished with the flat-file version of AllAffiliatePro V3. Would you be interested in taking on the MySQL version?--- Your messageHello!Excuse me, I really appreciate your offer, but I have worked on that project very hard for the past two month, so, to tell the truth, I think that it would be fair that my pay would be £200 (of course, if it's possible and acceptable for you).What do you think of it?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi, How much would i like to pay you? Well I would like to pay you nothing, LOL! But seriously, how does £150 sound? That's about 6,450.10 RUR. I still need to take a look at it. Been busy lately.--- Your messageNo, it hasn't.I'll prepare it, while you will look at the beta-version.As for guestbook, I've been written it for 2 weeks.While in ASRS I put 2.5 months.Of course, I don't know, how much does it cost.On the other hand, I'm very interested about how much will you pay me for ASRS.So, can you tell me right now, how much approximately would you like to pay me for ASRS?Thank you-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi, I haven't taken a good look at it yet. Does it have install.cgi and documentation? I gave you £60 for the GuestBook Script, so I guess you'll want a bit more for this one. What were you thinking of? How much time have you put into this?--- Your messageHello.1) I am asking about how much do you want to pay me for this version.I don't see any limitations. But, the more the number of URL, the less the speed of spider. But the speed of search engine practically won't decrease.What do you mean by 1000 URLs?If you're talking about 1000 pages, it won't be more, than 5-6Mb.If you mean 1000 sites, it's rather difficult to say, but, to my mind, it will be about 100Mb-1Gb. (everything depends on amount of pages).Bye-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, 1) What do you mean by honorar? 2) Yes I will be needing an MySQL version, preferable a multilple database version SQL, Access, etc.Can you esimate how many URL's the flat file version can handle? And how big it would be for say 1000 URL's.--- Your messageExcuse me,I'd like to ask you two questions:1) What, you think, will be approximate honorar for ASRS?2) Do you like to have an SQL-version of this program?Thank you.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------I've just sent you the new version of program with specification,-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello!I've killed all the bugs, made script for automatical configuration, written document, describing all modules and functions and inserted a lot of comments. I've decreased the size of base in several times. Now it's size for 2-3 big sites is about 500Kb. So the script has become much better.But I still have a small problem: I told me, that you didn't like structure:will be fully deleted.If you want, I will send you this module.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi, Yes NT, 2000, ME, 98 if it works on one, it'll work on all. To be clear, I'm not talking about a unix/linux version, then a windows version, but a single version which works on both.I guess spidering should have 3 options for the user to choose from.1. Just the page submitted.2. The page, and grab other pages on the same domain from the links.3. GRAB EVERYTHING (Like altavista)You'll also want to not index pages if they are not up to scratch. I.E. very crappy, spammy pages.Also, how the pages get ranked in searchs will need to be configurable (or at least adjustable) by the user. I.e. they specify the K/w density, what gets presedence, etc.For the price, I'll see what it turns out like, then give you a fair price.Keep up the good work!--- Your messageAs for Unix/Linux, I think, that everything will be ok. I have Linux and I tried to run my scripts on it. They are working properly. As for NT, it's Microsoft system, so, I think, if script is running on Windows98, it will work on NT either.Yes, in fact, spider should index pages by links. But there may be, for example, collection of links to other sites. Of course personal site search engine shouldn't index those sites. But Altavista and other global search machines will index everything they meet. So my question is: Should spider index only entered sites, or it should also search sites itself?J60 is rather big sum.J60 equals 2400 rubles.While middle month salary of programmer in province is 5000 - 10000 rubles.In Moscow or St. Petersburg programmer's salary is much more (~20000-50000 rubles, depending on his stage, working place and so on)As for its worth, our prices are almost such as in USA, Canada (and UK, I think). For example, big 2L bottle of PEPSI costs 30 rubles (~1 USD), good cigaretes, like Malboro also cost ~ 1USD. But there is some cheap food, such as bread (~0.2USD) or milk (1L costs ~0.4USD). There are also some cheap, but very bad, alcohol drinks. Such thinks, as flats, cars etc., a cheaper then in UK, I think. For example, 3-rooms flat costs about 20 000 USD, but private house costs about 200 000 - 300 000 USD. Russian cars are cheap, you can buy new car for 4000-5000 USD. As for this project, I don't know, how much should it cost. So, please, set the honorar yourself. It will be better either for me or for you.As for feauters, for now I think, that spider should posses following features:- it will be quick (I optimize scripts in such way, that the minimum of server resoursces will be used)- it will index pages in a new way, using specification of HTML. So there won't be lost fragments of text.- each word will have own priority:name of file and TITLE will have first priorityheaders (H1..H6, TH, etc.) will have second priorityand all other words will have third priority.So, when searching, pages, having searched word in header tags, will be shown first.- alts and filenames of images will be also indexed. And, while searching there will be option "search images".of course, that isn't all.there'll be a lot usefull features.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, I thinking about it, and was hoping that you would be able to make a multiple Database version, SQL, Access, etc. But only after the flatfile as you say. Also do you know how to make scripts so that they will run on NT and Unix?As for the spider, as I said in my ASRS email to you, it should spider pages for links, and add them to its URL's to be spiders list. Checking the url's are not already indexed, or in the to be indexed list. This should be optional, i.e. users should be able to select whether to have the spider index links, or just webmaster submissions.By the way, how much is £60 in russian currency? What is it worth out there? And do you have an idea of how much you want for this project?How you taken a look at what features the competition has for search engines? Loads are listed at www.hotscripts.com--- Your messageAnd what about SQL-version?You said something about it.As for me, firstly I'm going to create a flatfile database and only after this - SQL version.As for spider, should it add new sites itself (like Altavista or our russian search engines "Aport" and "Yandex") or it should only look through sites, which were added manually?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi, The purpose is so that users can create an AltaVista style search engine, but it can also be used for a site search engine. Small to medium size with the flatfile database. We'll look at a DataBase version later.--- Your messageHello!I've received money today (because of strange work of our banks) andI was just going to message you about it.Thank you very much!As for our new project, I saw CPAN HTML-parsing modules, but I didn't like them, because they are very primitive and sometimes they don't work properly. Now I'm writing more "intelligent" parsing-module, containing some functions. When the module is complete (I think it will be ready in 3-4 days), I'll tell you about it much more.I have one very important question:What is the purpose of this product?Is it for proffesional search portals (like "Altavista") or for personal usage (like search engine for single site or for some sites)?Thank you.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, Haven't heard from you in a while. Everything OK?--- Last messageHi, I sent the payment on friday. Here are the details:-Name: Lyle Raymond HopkinsAddress: 16 Tabernacle Road, Wotton Under Edge, Gloucestershire, GL12 7EF, UKMoney Transfer control number: 8258246866It cost me £14 to make the payment, ouch.--- Your messageYes, I'm sure.But it would be better to give you my ID:First name: MaksimSecond name: NikolaevichSurname: NikolaevGender: MaleBirthdate: 23.03.1983Home address: 6, 13-V, Inzhenernaya, Pskov, Russia.Pasport number: 58 97 004883By the way, in order to receive money I'll have to know:1) your full name2) your location3) special 10-digits numberAs for my new project, can you give old version of this product?Or, although, documentation for it.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi,I've found a local branch, I'll need to travel into city. I will be sending the payment soon. Are you sure that is all the information I will need?--- Your messageURL is www.westernunion.com.As for details, you should know my location (Pskov, Russia) and my name (first name: Maksim, second name: Nikolaevich, surname: Nikolaev).After sending money you will receive a special secret code, which you should send personally to me.As fot me, after receiving code I will go to their office and show them this code and my passport. If everything is ok, they'll give me money.I think it's impossible for UK to make transfer online, so you will need to contact their office. Thank you.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Ok, I understand. Could you give me the URL of western union again, and the details I need to send you the money.As for project time, however long it takes. ASAP preferably but you dont need to go overboard.--- Your messageNo, thank you, I want to receive money as quickly, as it possible.Now I'm in difficult financial situation and even J60 will be very helpfull for me.Thank you.As for project, how much time will you give me for it? When should it be ready?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------As it's only £60 so far, do you want to wait until it's more? Western Union to russia will be quite expensive.I haven't worked on the feature list for ASRS Pro V2 to much. We will need to take a look at what features the competition is offering. The features I have listed so far are:-SpiderMeta tag grabSearch syntax (e.g. +, URL:, HOST:, ?, &, AltaVista kind of stuff)404 error check for pages404 error check sweep of indexed sitesFamily FilterDP mergeMySQL version (FlatFile for standard)Admin OptionsBan domains, URL'sYou should take a look at perl.com and CPAN, I'm sure there are modules for grabing and parsing HTML pages.--- Your messageAnd what about money for guestbook?Are there any problems about sending them?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello.I'd like to start from ASRS Pro V2.Please tell me more about this project.What features should it include?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello,I'm fine. I'm from the UK.Here are projects that I need doing:-Directory Pro V3 - Adding new features and functionality to my Yahoo style Directory software.ASRS Pro V2 - Whole new version of my search engine software. Inc making a spider, merging with DP V3, ranking pages.Inquiry Handler V2 - Adding new features and functionality to my Inquiry Handler software.You can take your pick, all need doing. For DP and IH you'll be working on my current scripts, for ASRS you'll be starting basically from scratch. Give me an idea of what you want for each project.--- Your messageI've found an error in one of guestbook scripts: if guestbook administrator wantsdate to be displayed, but doesn't want the time to be visible, therewill be unnecessary zero at the end of date.I've sent you the fixed script.Sorry.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------What's up?Are you ok?I mean those awful events in USA.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Yes, of course.And how will you send me money?By Western Union?In this way you should know my location and my name.My name is Maksim Nikolaevich NikolaevMy location is Pskov, Russia-----------Last message---------------------------------------------I'll look at my projects, and see what to give you. It may be updating one of my current programs to a new version. Yes I'll buy your guest book once I'm totally satisfied (I still need to check this latest version). Was it £60 we agreed on?--- Your messageI don't know PHP and as for ASP, I didn't make any professional projects with it's help. But, I think, it's easy to learn both ASP, and PHP.Also I'm ready to make programs from the list of your projects. So, my next project is absolutely depends on you.And what about guestbook?Will buy it?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello,I'll have a look at it shortly. What other languages do you know? I need ASP and PHP versions of my scripts but haven't the time. Would you be interested in this? Converting the code shouldn't be to difficult, just changing the syntax really. Also would I be able to give you projects with a list of features and you make a program from that?--- Your messageHello.I've just sent you fixed version.Excuse me for those silly errors.I've simply forgotten to change something.Now it consists of 4 scripts (instead of 6).Documentation is also changed.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello,I've just had a look. It's all pretty good. Although there are a few things that need to be changed. The configureation, admin (delete not working), password change, need to be called all from one script. E.G. You login to admin.cgi and it is linked to cfg and password change, so there is no need to keep re-inputing the password, and going to different URL's. Your install.html page has a couple of mistakes on it also.Make the changes and send me an update.Were almost there :)--- Your messageOk.I'll be waiting for your message.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------I'm very, very sorry this is taking so long. Hopefully I'll have chance to look at it tomorrow.I haven't forgotten you.--- Your messageSorry, things have been really nasty at the moment. I will get back to you.

Very good, but there are still a couple of things. You need to make your own version of our install.cgi script. You should be able to go through and make a few modifications. This includes our encrypted password file generation, you need to adapt to our encrypted password system. Default username/password should be admin/adminpass, and saved to the file adminpass.txt.--- Your messageI've sent zip-file to e-mail webmaster@cosmicperl.com.I'll be waiting for your comments.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Send me it all in a zip and I'll have a look.

And what about WesternUnion?Did you visit there site?Is it possible for you to send me money with its help? -----------Last message---------------------------------------------The PerlCodeGenerator is a sort of hyped up notepad designed for Perl coders (it makes our life a lot eaiser).There are many, many scripts I want done. I'll send you a list of features, and you need to make the script to match.Yes you should have the same documentation and install system for your guestbook before I will buy it.--- Your messageIf it won't be possible to send money by WesternUnion, please tell me, what other companies are rather convinient for you. I can go to Sankt Petersburg (if it will be really necessary).As for documentation, I'll look through it. Should I write the same documentation for my guestbook?What is "PerlCodeGenerator"?Tell me about it.What will be my tasks about it?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------I'll take a look at their site. I'll send you a copy of one of our products, I think InquiryHandler will do (it's only V1 and quite simple). You'll need to make you documentation style match and make a version of our install script for your guestbook.If your going to be doing work for me I'll also let you in on a project I'm doing. It's called the "PerlCodeGenerator" and is a working environment for us perl programmers. It's still in the eairly stages, but I think you'll like it :)--- Your messageWestern Union is worldwide company, sending and receiving money. It has offices in 185 countries. Look at http://www.westernunion.com.How can I learn the style of CosmicPerl?Can you give me examples of your scripts?As for sort of pay, I would prefer Western Union. It would be convenient for me, if you pay percents to Western Union from my fee.In order to send me money through Western Union, you should know only my name and location. After registration you will get code, consisting of some digits, which you will message me (better directly to my e-mail).I will get money, having only my passport and this code.My name is Maksim Nikolaevich Nikolaev.My location is Russia, Pskov.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------What is Western Union, and how do I pay you by it?I can give you outlines for programs I want made.

Message me in a couple of days.--- Your messageAnd, by the way, where should I send all the files?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------I'm busy at the moment, I'll get back to you in a day or so.--- Your messageSorry, I'll have a lot of problems with a check: I'll have to go to capital twice in order to cash your check. May be it would be better for you to pay percents to Western Union from my cash? So I'll get less, than 60, but it will be more convenient and cheap for me, because I won't have to go to another city.Today I was in office of "Western Union". And they said me, that I would miss about 20%. It's not too much for me.My name is Maksim Nikolaevich Nikolaev.Country - Russia, city - Pskov.1) What programming experience do you have? I have an experience of work with such programming languages and web-technologies as Perl, JavaScript, VBScript, ASP, SSI, HTML, DHTML. As for ready products, before this guestbook I've written some books for my own sites (but they weren't programmable). And also I've written software for entertaining web-project "The Bat". There were musical chart and some puzzles and games, including strip-poker and 15. Unfortunatelly, these scripts were lost. And also I've writen voting system for another site. In general, my common web-designing and web-programming stage is more than 2 years.2) Are you self taught? To tell the truth, I'm a student of polytechnical university. My faculty is "computers and networks". So I am not absolutely self taught. But, unfortunatelly, I don't have any international certificates.3) How old are you? I'm 18.4) Do you come from russia?Yes, I live in Russia, in a small town.As for my job: for example, I've written this guestbook. And you liked it. But, on the other hand, it's not too much usefull for you. Maybe, it would be better for you to tell me, what scripts do you need. And will write them for a low price. -----------Last message---------------------------------------------A Wester Union transfer would be expensive, what about a check?Please could you answer the questions I asked.

If the same surfer then clicks through the banner again this will be counted as a raw click, a raw click is regardless of whether the surfer has clicked for the first time or not. A blind click is where the surfer didn't know that he was clicking to visit the site, the surfer was tricked into clicking through. E.g. the link said next page.--- Your messageHi,Can you tell me what the difference is between "Raw" and "Unique" hits is, and also "Blind Raw" and "Blind Unique"?SR-----------Last message--------------------------------------------------------Last message---------------------------------------------Yes, I copied them up..Thanks for the advice..Speak to you soon!SRHello, Sorry i've taken so long to get back to you, we've been upgrading our computers. The problem is that if you want to have an ", @, $, or % you need to put a \ "backslash" infront. Such as \" or \@.

In the future if this happens, edit the file variables.var and remove the problem @ or ", etc directly.--- Your messageUpdate on the problem below:Its not the amount of text that causes it to crash, it's the email link!!!!-----------Last message---------------------------------------------I re installed the system and yes it does seem as there is a glitch. On the configure variables page, when you try to enter a fair amount of text into "E-mail Join Pending Accepted to Affiliate" it causes all the scripts/pages to crash...... Is this a bug or is there a recognised limit to the amount of text that we are able to put in here?Simon Ramsden-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Glitch I think,The scripts seemed to be working fine until.....I was entering in some text into the "congrats.. you have been accepted" field in config and as soon as i had submitted the changes, i got an "Internal script error" page, now every page brings up this error.I was wondering if had something to do with the amount of text that I was entering that caused the system to crash out.Anyhow, I cant get in at all now and we have 3 genuine affiliate members signed up now so I cant just completely uninstall and reinstall.Please advise,Simon Ramsden-----------Last message---------------------------------------------GREAT!!!I'll let you know about the SSL workRegards,Simon-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, I have logged in and updated the files cosmic.pm, cosmicaap.pm, manager.cgi and stato.cgi with the latest update. Please download for your records. I have also added the call to order04.html, I am presuming that the code modification to actinics al000010.pm is still intact. The problem with the old order04.html was that is was setup for whatbaron.co.uk instead of whatbaron.com.If you need anything else just message me.--- Your messageHi,Have you been able to take a look yet? Its holding us up now.Simon-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi,Unfortunately its not working. The only difference that i can see is that when you install the software for some reason it doesnt automatically chmod it and says you have to do it manually, and i dont recall it doing this the first time.Basically it just throws up error pages, i.e. when you try to join up.I would be most gratefull if you could take a look based on the admin in one of my posts below, as at the moment this has stopped us right in our tracks.Regards,Simon Ramsden-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi, I hadn't had chance to login yet. Is there still a problem? Or is it working again on the other server?--- Your messageHi,Hope you had a good Xmas and New Year.We have moved "Whatbaron" back to the other server where it resided originally, the admin is still the same. I dont know if you logged in and updated the files yet. If so then can you tell me what exactly you have done as these updates may of been lost.Regards,Simon Ramsden-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, Thanks ok. I have an update to AAP V2 anyway which you'll want. AAP V3 is at the end of the debugging stage, and should be ready soon after christmas. It's got more feature, and a much improved look. I'll login an update your unix version.--- Your messageHi,Thanks for the message.I have been on holiday in Australia for the last 4 weeks (alright for some!), however while i've been away my company has been demonstrating the Affiliate system to several customers who all use the Actinic System and it has created quite a bit of interest.However, we had a server problem while I was away and the whole site had to be ported over to an older unix system. Since the move none of the scripts seem to function and I dont know if this is a server problem (it runs other scrips fine) or just something that i'm doing wrong.If you have chance I was wondering if you could take a quick look and advise me:www.whatbaron.comun/ baronadminpw/ courtSeasons RegardsSimon Ramsden-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, I haven't heard from you in a while, is everything ok?--- Your messageHi, I didn't change the colour scheme, that's how it came to me. Glad to hear it's working.--- Your messageGreat... it seems to be working now but the colour scheme is seriously bad its all black?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi, You can configure the affiliate program to point to 5 different pages or sites. The SITE defines which the link is pointing to. BLIND is if you are offering a payper click program with blind linking allowed. Yes, payday only works for yesterday backwards. I didn't mod the Unix order04.html, I'll do that now.I see you put across the NT order04.html file. I need the Unix one to redo the mod. You can email it to me "webmaster@cosmicperl.com" or re-upload it to the server.--- Your messageOk... I think i've sorted out the link query. but I would still like to understand what the SITE and BLIND refers to? Also, can you tell me how the Generate payday works because I cant seem to get it to work. Is this because I've put all my test orders through today and it only works it out for yesterday backwards?I really need to understand this fully because we are going to be demonstarating this to a lot of potential clients, which means £'s for us both if I can demonstrate it successfully.Also, something is not quite right with the order.html file that you did because after the customer receipt has been dispayed (after placing the order) it wont take you back to the Whatbaron home page... instead its "Page Cannot be displayed"I need to get this sorted today because i'm out of the office for a while after today.Regards,Simon-----------Last message---------------------------------------------That seems to of done it (well it doesnt crash anymore at least). The scheme is purely going to work from a commision basis (through actinic) so please could you give me am example link, i.e. from another site. I've set up an affiliate account UN "rammers" PW "test"... so what will the link be from an affiliate? I dont understand the SITE and BLIND usage on the linking.html pageSR-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi, I've done the mod to this new version of the file. I have uploaded to the server as al000001t.pm, for you to rename and test. Hope it works.--- Last messageHi, I'll do a mod to this different version of the file.

I was hoping that you would get back to me before now but you havent. What I have found out is that "al000010.pm" works on the old NT version that you did for rams-den.co.uk but not on the new unix server version, and vica versa, i.e. if I put the actinic generated "al000010.pm" file intothe rams-den.co.uk cgi-bin I get the same error. I guess this means that there is a path problem i.e. maybe to the cgi-bin or something and this might ring true because you do have to enter different settings in the Network Configuration section of actinic if it is running on NT such as the path to perl is different ect..Any Ideas?SR-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi, Have you had any luck with the error log?SR-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi.... I checked and it was the correct transfer... so Yes please take a look at the error log :-)www.whatbaron.co.ukbaronadmincourtThanksSR-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, I just took another look at the mod. There is nothing specific to rams-den, or NT, so it should be working. Are you sure you uploaded in ASCII? If you getting an error, can you give me the information from the error log, so I can see exactly whats causing the error.--- Your messagehi,Re: al000001.pmThey are the same files for unix and nt however when I add your amended file to the server (unix) it doesnt work it causes a internal server error.Was there something speciffic that you did for that particular url, i.e. it was on a test area called www.rams-den.co.uk?.. any help you could give would be appreciated because My deadline is very tight. Also, we have advised our client with the costs that Jeff outlined so we are waiting in a response from them on that.Cheers,Simon Ramsden-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, You need to add the link to anywhere on the page. You may want to put it above the Today's stats link. Here is the HTML:-Get BannersOrder4.html will be the same. I'm not sure about al000010.pm. Is there a different version for Unix?

He is on holiday at the moment, but should be back any day now.--- Your messageHi,Aside from our affiliate scheme, would you be interested in some other Actinic Script Optimisation? Basically, we want to modify it so that if a particular product is ordered/paidfor, an email would be sent out with an attatchment (3 meg file)to the customer.From what you have seen do you think this would be possible? if so do you think you could do it?

Please use the PayPal gateway (US & Canada order form) as they accept UK credit and debit cards.--- Your messageWell we need to pay you for the UNIX version and the custom work that u did in the first instance(how much is this? and how best is it paid), and then potentially we could be buying numerous copies as we have many actinic customers.Simon-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, I've just sent LCG to you. How many copies are you looking at purchasing?--- Your messageThink you may of not included the LCG. Still having a few problems with the actinic intergration as detailed below. Also I need to know your pricing structures for payment etc...-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi, I don't know, have you tried that? Did I forget to send you a copy of the LCG?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi,No its not a reinstall, if you change prices or add/remove products then you need to update the server files so its just a case of reuploading using the update button. But I would of thought that if you put the order04.html into the actinic directory then you over write the old one??? and the same applies to the pearl file??. Also what/where is the link generator?Simon RamsdenHello, I don't know how the actinic uploads to the system. Is that a re-install? I could make a script you can run which will backup the two files, then update them to normal before the actinic upload, and update them to the mod after. I could really do with an injection of cash at the moment. So I hope we can get this sorted shortly.--- Your messageHi,I dont need to worry about the Netbanx version for the time being. One thing I have noticed however is that if you save the Order04.html to the Actinic directory(local), for some reason Actinic over writes it with the original Order04.html when you do an upload to the system via Actinic. The only way I could get it to work was to drop Order04.html and al000010.pl into their respective directories on the server, however, this then seems to cause an error within Actinic when you try to upload. It produces an error when it is trying to merge the files on the server.Any thoughts?PS I know we owe you for the work you have done and if we can get this running smoothly then we intend to purchase numerous copies from you so we will have to discuss prices etc..Regards, Simon Ramsden-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, I have a Unix version for when you need it. That'll require another payment though. I haven't worked with netbanx before, I'm not sure on their system. Is it possible to modify the thank you for your order page when an order goes through NetBanx? If they have their own page, they will need to support my Affiliate software, the mod is very small and simple. Or does it go back to the actinic thank you page? If i could look at a working example (E.G. give me some test details to use) I would have a better idea.--- Your messageHi,Thanks for your patience. The project has had to be on the backburner for the last couple of weeks, however we are about to start testing the scheme with one of our customers so I may need your assistance shortly. We will definately need a Unix version of the program as currently we have be testing the system on one of out NT servers.Also, What do you think it will take to link up to Netbanx PSP?, will the existing system work or will it need modification?Simon Ramsden-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello???-- Last messageHello, I'm still waiting to hear from you.

I can iron anything out.Awaiting your replyLyle--- Your messageEverything ok?--- Your messageI've sent you the files.--- Your messageWhen ever you want to add a new product to the catalog (or delete one), or basically do and changes or ammendments you have to do an upload possibly as often as daily.If you modified order04.html then I guess this can be dropped into the site one directory and it will just get uploaded as normal, but the al000010.pm might get over written each time an upload takes place.I'm going to run some tests this afty so do i need a copy of the altered files?Simon Ramsden-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello,What exactly do you mean by upload quite frequently?I have modified the HTML template order04.html, that shouldn't cause any problems as you supposed to change that anyway. I have also modified the file al000010.pm to include an extra piece of code. What files are you replacing with the frequent upload?--- Your messagehi,Within the actinic catalog, you have to do an upload quite frequently I'm just a bit worried that you will overwrite any script changes by doing this.

What URL do I use to enter the rams-den actinic catalogue?--- Last messageHi,I've got the modification done. It's in the Actinic Perl Module al000010.pm which I have not yet uploaded. I have tested our code addition on our server and it worked perfectly. I will be testing it out live on your server tomorrow as today is a half day. Everything is looking good. There will be an extra piece of HTML in the template order4.html to call the affiliate script with the order ID and amount. I've had to extract the order amount from the HTML table that actinic produces. I've set it to grab the order subtotal so as not to include the shipping, etc. If you want it to use the order total just say and I'll change it.Soon I'll have it all running for you to check for your self. Sorry it's taken so long, but things have been a bit mad over here recently.--- Your messageHi,Can you give me an update on your progress?Thanks,Simon Ramsden-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi... it only works in a "test mode" when you use a Payment Service provider, but not when you use trhe inbuilt method.Anyway.. use the following generic details:Visaex. date 03/04Number 1400 0000 0000 0004anyname address etc...Simon Ramsden-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello,I just need some details I can use to order from the rams-den catalog.

There are others that support it. Integration is very simple. Basically our affiliate script needs to be called each time a sale is made and sent the order ID and order Amount. This is done using a 1x1 img tag on the order complete page of a Card Processor or Shopping Cart. To add this to a shopping cart it only takes a couple of lines of code. Card Processors such as CCnow have a form where you can input the affiliate script to call, others allow you to edit the order complete page and add the tag yourself.--- Your messageThe reseller program looks like a very good idea and something that we would be interested in. I have refered it to our technical director.The Actinic ecommerce package is the UK's leading off the shelf solution and we sell it by the bucket load. Actinic already contains an affiliate section but it really isnt up to to much. Basically it tells you through a comment field if an order has come through from traffic from another third party site, but it has no management aspect and it doesnt work out any commision values.Actinic has 3 payment processing methods, It has its own inbuilt encryption, it links to all the major payment providers such as WorldPay, Netbanx etc., and it also able to tie into SSL (less popular).Ideally I'd like to find out what it would take to tie your system into both the inbulit encryption method and also the credit card processors,by the way which ones have you linked to already?Regards,Simon ramsden.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------We have been working on a reseller program, which is in the planning stages.

What credit card processors are your actinic customers using? Or does actinic cover that side of things? I could do a mod for actinic to call the affiliate script, or it can tie in with the credit card processor's if compatable.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Thank you for your support and it works fine now. I'm not sure if you are personally aware but we are looking to be a reseller for this this product.We aim to tie the system into our ecommerce services and package it as an 'extra'. We are also a Gold reseller for the Actinic Shoping cart system and this is the system we would like to tie the Affiliate schemes into. Of most interest is the facility to offer commision on sales rather than pay per click that the system also offers. Have you got any advice with regards to using the affiliate with Actinic? I know a lot will depend on which online credit card provider you use, but Actinic also has its own in built encription system which it would be good to link to.I hope you can offer some information.Regards,Simon Ramsden--- oldAll Done!It's working now.

I just have a few questions.The main issue is that the visitors (sent by affiliates) will first download a trial version of the software from the main site (limited to ten runs) and then if they wish to buy, will return and purchase an unlocking code. As there will be some delay between the date the affiliate sends the customer and the date the customer purchases, we need to be able to track these customers over 3 - 6 months. Can this be done with your software? Does your software use cookies?Also does this software allow instant account activation for affiliates, or will my clients have to send out emails etc.The client's site is www.editorsoftware.comThey use www.secpay.com as their credit processor, whom I have already forwarded your standard enquiry form.Kind Regards,SaulPS: I am also interested in how much it costs per extra site this software is used on (we have other clients who may be interested).¦None.¦0¦11:03:2001¦12:06:2001 294432071¦Roman Ryabkov¦rrb@inbox.ru¦Web programmer from Russia¦Hello,I guess one more week.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, Could you give me some sort of timescale for completion?

I was expecting you to contact me before christmas.--- Your messageHello, Ok. I'll try and clarify this DMOZ grab thing a bit more. I don't want DP to copy the database to is own format. I just want it to grab searches one at a time as the user selects them, then just change the dmoz page format to one the webmaster has selected. This would be the same for viewing dmoz categories. I don't want any of the DMOZ data to be stored by DirectoyrPro from the dmoz grab. With the DMOZ steal feature, I want it to display a list of DMOZ categories (limited to say 50 per page), and they select to steal one at a time, this will prevent the timeout. I doubt they'll want to steal the whole ting, just a few categories.I see what you mean with the category re-generation. The way I have got around similar problems in the past is to split the operation into several attempts. E.g. If there are 150, only generate 50 at a time, and the user selects to generate the next set, and so on until the whole operation is complete. You could give the user the option of how many categories to generate at a time, and split it down accordingly. The broken links check must also be broken down in a similar way, so that the user select to select XX links at a time, and continues until the whole lot is complete. Letting them select to start from one of the main categories would also be good, so they don't always need to start from the begining.--- Your messageHello, We have some problems with DPV3. Dmoz Steal takes a lot of time during translating dmoz rdf file to DPV3 format, on my celeron 366 it takes 4-5 hours. Usualy http server keeps connection alive 300 sec. I'v done command line tool to escape this problem, but Re-Generate categories and Generate search data will takes also much more than 300 sec because data is huge. It's not all I'v not tested search engine yet, but I think it will not wery fast in this case. And last Broken links check will takes also a lot of time. I offer to do command line tools for this features and to give customers choise use whole dmoz base, if they have powerfull server enough, or only top sites (are marked in dmoz with stars), sure they can don't use Dmoz Steal at all.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, As long as you manage to mention each feature you have added in the documentation and how it works, I'll be able to tidy it up for you. It's just that when using the program I noticed a lot of features that were not mentioned in the documentation. I have also noticed some other small bugs. I'll list them and send them to you. One I remember off the top of my head is that when no sites are in the search results the "no matching sites" message is not displayed. Also the broken link check is wrong. I wanted it to be a manager feature so that it listed all the sites in the index that were broken in a list. So that the manager chould choose to email the webmaster or remove/keep the site.--- Your messageHi, I'm OK. Sory for delay, I'v done a new design, the DMOZ grab, and rewrite the DMOZ steal, it was made in wrong way before, now it feature parses XML file which absolutly free and without any limitations provides dy DOMZ.

Don't forget to add moderators.txt to the zip. It would be a shame to loose the current DMOZ feature, so we'll rename that one to DMOZ steal, and have the new one as DMOZ grab.--- Your messageHello, Ok please send me the DPv3 archive, I'l make this changes. DMOZ Grab feature works only with DMOZ because there are HTML are parsed.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, Yes, I uploaded a blank file and it is now working. There are a few changes that need to be made that I've noticed so far. The management area needs a face lift so that it looks like the new style of AAPv3, and the documentation also needs t be updated to this style. The DMOZ grab is useful, but not what I wanted, although I think we could adapt what you've done into a new function. What I wanted was the option to display DMOZ results, not by copying their index, but grabing their results in real time and letting the user modify the output. Take a look at:-http://www.portalscripts.com/home/Free_Portal_Tools/free_portal_tools.shtmlTo see what I mean, you can download their code for free. The idea was that if the user wanted to use the dmoz feature, when a search was run on their directory and there were no results it would instead display DMOZ results, like the way yahoo uses google when it has no matching sites in its directory. As for what you've done, would it be possible to use this to grab links off any site or does it only work on the DMOZ? Once this is done I think you'll be in line for a bonus.--- Your messageHi, Perhaps I'v forgotten to put this file into installation package.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, I'm just testing out DPv3 .

Wyrick¦jwyrick@freeboost.com¦Affiliate Software Installation¦With all due respect you never sent me the download files for the $140 script that you've now installed. I originally purchased the $70 script, which you said would not work unless I purchased your $30 add on, but when I paid you for this the ONLY thing that you sent me was the ONE PAGE ThankYou.cgi file. There were no added instructions included and no email sent to tell me how to effectively add this script to my site, so that the program would work. After trying many times over to get all of this to work I again decided to contact you for support. Your solution to this problem was that I should either purchase the larger $140 program, which would better meet my needs, or I could pay you to set things up for us. At that time it seemed more intellegent to simply pay you the $20 to install all of this for me, but after another 2 weeks of waiting, durring which time you again mentioned that you fealt that my needs would be better met buy purchasing the larger script, I decided to go with that offer in hopes that it would motivate you to finish installing the script for me. Now that you are done you want payment, which I completely understand, but please understand that I am NOT GOING TO PAY YOU, unless you send me a README file that tells me how to mange this script and an INSTALL file that tells me how to reinstall this script if I should ever have to move my website to another server. Again, I would like to point out that the ONLY documentation I have EVER received came with the other program, which you told me would not work without the added script. I don't mind paying the money that I owe you, but I am NOT going to do this until I receive what I have paid for in full. Please note that at no time have I shown any reluctance to pay my bill with you. My only concern from day one was that we get this done quickly and that I have complete documentation. It's now been a month and a half and I don't have any of the information that I've requested from you. As soon as this is done you will be paid in full. The rest of this is truly menial. You don't have to like my website, nor do you have to agree with my pricing structure. I have been in business now for almost 3 years and I've done quite well until now. The only things that you and I should be discussing is how long it will take you as a business owner to meet my companies needs and what kind of documentation and guarentees come with the services that you provide.Sincerely Yours,Jeffrey S. WyrickCEO FreeBoost.comI am awaiting the $35 payment.1) As you may recall the payment was for "Shopping cart affiliate mod". You can view details at:-http://www.cosmicperl.com/cartmod.shtmlThis entails me personally login in and adjusting a shopping cart, order form, (or in the case of PayPal adding thankyou.cgi) to work with the script. I have NEVER said that it was just for thankyou.cgi, it's all you have been banging on about, but I never said, or will ever say that. I have spent far to much time on your system as it is, if you had an adequate system in place to start with I would never had to have wasted so much time!2) My software already comes with a readme guide, which I get the feeling you never look over properly going by all your questions I've had to answer. Apart from that just backup the files of yours I adjusted. I have already told you to do this, and which files.3) Funily enough that is up to you! If you want a direct link to the statistics area THEN ADD ONE TO THE TEMPLATE PAGES! Reading the WHOLE manual would be a good start.4) READ THE README5) I only ever made one change to the PayPal links and that was to change the thankyou page from order.html to thankyou.cgi. THIS MAKES NO DIFFERENCE WHAT SO EVER to the functionality of the links. If PayPal update their systems appearance, THAT IS UP TO THEM.6) DoneAs for the other numbers:-1) You should do this before requesting Card numbers.2) FormMail.pl was not on the other server. You were loosing everything. Not so clever. It explains your lack of orders you were moaning to me about!--- Your messageI'm glad to see that we are making some progress, but I stillhave several questions to ask, which I have listed below.01.) Why did you insist that I pay you $30 for thankyou.cgi if we're not even using this added script to run the affiliate program?02.) What happened to the README file that I requested? If I had toreinstall this script at a later time I would have no idea where to begin!03.) Why does the sign up process dead end? There's no way for the new affiliate to know where to go to check on their progress and now wayfor them to go and get the text link / banner source code from.04.) Where do I go to manage things for the affiliate program? Thereshould be some kind of information, like an administration.txt page, thatcomes with the script. This would help your clients greatly!05.) Why were my Pay Pal links altered? They don't appear to have anything at all to do with the functionality of the affiliate script. The first time they were altered they stopped working all together. Now they bring up a totally different looking Pay Pal screen entirely that has different catagory titles and doesn't look anything like it used to.06.) Is there a way to set things up so that people are NOT paid for the ip addresses, as I am giving them to my clients at cost? I included them on the order form to make things clear to my potential clients and I added the prices at your recommendation, but I would prefer not to take a loss.FYI: In responce to your comments below I have posted a reply.01.) I have contacted VeriSign about this matter and am in the process of setting up a security certificate. This is only a temporary set back. As for the expiration date, I thought that I'd added that, or at leaset I had intended to. Either way, I will make that modification asap.02.) As these are my servers I will be hosting everything on them, which includes the security certificate. The only thing holding me back from doing that now is learning how to set things up for this on the Cobalt Raq4i server. I believe the problem that we've had is that we could not figure out how to get the server to set up the CSR code, but now that we have the order form changed and the affiliate program set up, we will make that our next priority.03.) We actually have 6 servers. FreeBoostPHP is one of them. At one time we had a little bit of trouble running cgi on the server that FreeBoost was on, so we put the FormMail.pl script on another server temporarily and forwarded the email to my personal email box while we got things transfered over to our new network and upgraded from the RaQ3i servers to RaQ4i servers.....that way we didn't have to worry about losing orders :o)-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello again, again, I've done the modification and all seems to be working fine.The following files have been modified:-order.htmlformmail.plthankyou_order.htmlPlease back them up, as if they are changed to the originals it will not work.The order form no longer redirects to your homepage but to thankyou_order.html.

Your order form has space for a credit card number, apart from missing off the expiry date, this form is hosted insecure! This is a great risk to your customers, and will be very off putting for them. If they know anyhing about ordering online they wont input their card number on a non-secure page.2. If you put the order form on a secure server which is a different domain to freeboost.com the affiliate program will need to be altered.3. Your order form wasn't even working, it was pointing to www.freeboostphp.com instead of freeboost.com, I have changed this.--- Last messageHello, Sorry for the delayed response. I am about to do the modification now, I will inform you of what is setup. As for the PayPal links, when I set them up I did not realise that all orders were going through your order form, PayPal or not. In other words, you can put the PayPal links back how they were and the order form modification will cover it. As for your prices, in my opinion they are too low, and you're shooting yourself in the foot a bit.--- Your messageHello Again, POST NUMBER TWOPlease take care of this as quickly as possible. Every day that this is not up and running is another day that we are not able to accept normal credit card payments through Pay Pal, as you've altered the links and they no longer work the same way. I realize that the recent delays were my fault, but I made the changes that you requested and wrote back to you about this two days ago. Since then you have not taken any action, nor have you taken the time to post a responce telling me when you would be getting things up and running for us. I understand that you have other things to deal with, but in the meantime I am trying to run a 3 year old web hosting company that has ben moderately successful up until now, but with now way to accept credit card payments directly from my website at all, the amount of money comming in has seriously begun to dwindle. In fact, if it were not for the fact that a few people have taken the time to either call, or email us asking for more informaiton, we would have made no money at all over the past week. At any rate, we need this taken care of as quickly as possible, so that we can get the affiliate program up and running smoothly, but even more importantly so that we can get back to doing business the right way and be able to accept credit card payments from our website, which we can not do at this point.Sincerely Yours,Jeffrey S. WyrickCEO FreeBoost.comDate 12-18-01Hello, POST NUMBER ONESorry for the delays. We've been very busy lately and our designers just can't seem to stay focused on the jobs they're supposed to be doing, so I've had to babysit them a bit lately. I've also had to take on a bit of extra work myself due to the fact that our design teams are not keeping up as well as they normally do. Anyhow, I believe that I've done what you needed me to do with the order.html form. Please take a look at it and tell me if that's what you wanted done. I'd really like to get things back on track with this project as soon as possible. Something that you did to our Pay Pal links has disabled them. Could you please take a look at this, as I don't want to undo anything you've done when we've come this far along already and we're this close to finishing. Please make sure that you leave me with a detailed README file, so that I can add other products and services and not have to worry about things being tracked. Also, please make sure that NONE of the things in our RESELLER area are tracked by the affiliate program. This is VERY important, as these prices are already knocked down low enough as it is. Please don't forget the README file. This is the FIRST cgi program that has ever had us this stumped :o\Sincerely Yours,Jeffrey S. WyrickCEO FreeBoost.comDate 12-16-01Hi, Here is the way I see it:-Customers can either pay via PayPal, then fill out your order form. Or they can pay by cheque or Credit card by going straight to your order form. Here is where I get confused. You order form has no space for them to input their card details. So how do you deal with this? What happens once they fill out the order form? Do you contact them to find out what it is they are ordering? Wouldn't it be easier for them to select exactly what they want on your order form, saving you having to contact them to find out? Also making it trackable by my script. I'm surprised that you dont have a shopping cart. Have you thought about using one? You can get a good free one from http://www.commerce-cgi.com/ which would also make ordering and integration much easier. Also I'm wondering why you have credit card ordering separate, isn't this covered by PayPal?Basically to track affiliate commissions I need to know exacltly what they are ordering on the order form. Unless you want to give more general commissions for the options on the order form, i.e.Domain registration - $30Web hosting - $40Web Design - $50etc... (these are just example figures)--- Last messageHello, I think I'm going to need to go through this ordering system with you so that are both clear on whats going on, and whats needed. I just going Christmas shopping, I'll message you when I get back.--- Your messageAre you guys working on setting this up now? Is there anything that I need to do in order to speed this process up, like make specific changes to the order.html order form page?Sincerly Yours,Jeffrey S. WyrickCEO FreeBoost.com-----------Last message---------------------------------------------1.) Not a problem. I remember getting a virus a few months ago and having to fight withit for days. It was not something I'd like to do again.2.) The way that I thought that things were going to work is that the new account holder would click on the link that says ORDER on my website. This would then take them to Pay Pal to make their payment. Once they had made their payment they were returned to our order.html page to fill out an order and tell us exactly what they wanted. Once we got their payment and their order form we would set the new account up for them. This has worked very well for over 2 years now. However, if you feel that it would work better to redirect them to thankyou.cgi insted, then I'm ok with this as long as there is a link on there that tells the client where to go to fill out our order form, so that we can begin setting up their new account for them. On the other hand, if you feel that the BEST way to go is to alter our order.html page to reflect prices for each service, then we are willing to consider this possibility as well. The only problem that we have with this is that we do not know how we would should change the order form, so that the script would recognize the prices and also so that those price variables will be passed on somewhere else within the script, so that the affiliate can get credit for a percentage of the sale's exact amount. What is most important to us is that this is hands off for us.3.) What is most important to us is that the affiliate can add a text link, banner link, or button link to their website. From that point on if one of their viewers clicks on that banner link, button link, or text link we want the affiliate to get credit and earn a 20% commission for any sale that is made to someone that was referred to us by their website. It is also very important to us to know that the affiliate can log in to the web based statistics area and check to see how much money they've earned so far this month...and that the statistics are updated in real time. This is why we chose to purchase your program, as it appears to do be able to do this.4.) Just out of curiosity, how does this program work? Does it set a cookie up for the viewer that tells us that they were referred to by one of our affiliates? How does it track each order and know how much was spent by the new client, so that it can give the affiliate credit? I think that our biggest confusion here is that I don't know exactly how your program is designed to work. I had assumed that you would alter the Pay Pal link and set up a cookie to track things from there. I had further assumed that you would set things up using thankyou.cgi as the confirming account url that Pay Pal refers to. This would tell the script that a purchase was made and how much was paid for if it was tracking things using the original Pay Pal link wouldn't it? Then if we put a link to our order form on the Thank You page people would know where to go and fill that out at. However, if you still feel that it would be better to alter our order.html page to reflect our prices please explain to us exactly what needs to be done for each link and we will do that first thing tomorrow. I'm sure that this would mean that we'd have to change the way each option was set up on the from, but I'm willing to do that if that means that we will have the entire Affiliate software program set up and running smoothly this weekend :o)5.) I will take a look at the banner / text configuration page in a moment and get back to you about this matter tomorrow as my major concern right now is to get the rest of the script up and running as quickly as we can.Sincerely Yours,Jeffrey S. WyrickCEO FreeBoost.comPhone: 313-921-0001-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi,1. Thank you.2. I think there is much confusion over your ordering system. Please explain it to me as a walkthrough. In my opinion this ordering system does not look very good, and also is confusing to customers. It may be worth putting a new system in place. You can still use formmail.pl, but a much better order form with all your options and prices for the custom to specifically select. Otherwise there is no way of my scripts tracking automatically. The only way to do it with your current order form is to enter all order manually afterwards.3. I'm not quite sure about what your thinking of here.4. I know you setup the links. I could not have know what amounts to be set, and what options to be available. I did however modify these links so that the thankyou page points to thankyou.cgi to track the commissions. I just checked you site again to see that these changes have been replaced by the old ones. I've just reuploaded. Please download hosting.html and design.html for your records.5. I fixed the banner/text addition and upload. You can start adding banner now, the template can be done later.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Sorry to hear about the computer problems that you've been having, but I am glad that we're going to be able to get things rolling again in the near future. I will try and respond to each of your questions one at a time, so that we can get this done as quickly as possible.1.)We have sent you a $35 deposit tonight, just as we've talked about in the past. When you are done installing everything and it's all up and running smoothly we will pay you the other $35. Hopefully this will be soon though, as a lot of people are very eager to get started using this new program. We've had a lot of questions recently.2.)I will try to answer your questions as thoroughly as possible in this message. If I miss anything, or if you have any more questions please feel free to ask them in your response. That way we can get all of this out of the way and get this project done.3.)If the FormMail.pl script is getting in the way we can just add a link to the Thank You page telling the new client to fill out the order form after they have paid for the service. It is more important to me that the affiliate get's credit and that the affiliate can log in to the web based control panel with their user name and password to check and see how much money they have earned at any time and be able to see the statistics in real time. As long as that works, then the client can always click on a link that's put on the Thank You page to fill out the order form.4.)It was ME that set up the Pay Pal links on both the hosting.html page and the design.html pages. These do not appear to have been altered at all. In fact, I logged in to Pay Pal and recreated one and checked the source code just to make sure...they looked identical. These have not been altered since the day that I set them up.5.)In regards to the Banner/Text link part of the script, that was set up and installed by you and has not been altered at all yet. I'm waiting for you to finish getting everything set up before I change the html to make everything blend in with the rest of the website.PLEASE DO NOT SET UP TRACKING FOR THE LINKS ON THE RESELLER INDEX PAGE ! THIS PAGE IS FOR OUR RESELLERS ONLY AND IS A PART OF A SEPERATE PROGRAM.I will be sending you the $35 deposit tonight in the hopes that you can have the rest of this set up and running smoothly as quickly as possible. If you have any questions, or concerns, please feel free to email me :o)Sincerely Yours,Jeffrey S. WyrickCEO FreeBoost.com313-921-0001--- Last messageHello, I am sorry. I caught the latest transMM virus and it knocked out my system for a couple of days.A few points:-1. I have given you my PayPal email several times now. You need only look down this message list to find it.2. You dont appear to be reading or answering my questions. I cannot continue until you answer correctly the questions I ask of you.3. I will ask my main question again:- I am not quite sure how we are going to work your formmail.pl order form. I need to know what price you want to use for each option. I could stamp each order email with the referring affiliate username, for you to add commissions later after confirmation. Your order form has no prices, and does not have an option for each of your packages, but has geneal options. How the hell I am supposed to magically know what the customer is purchasing and what price it is I would really like to know.4. I setup the PayPal payment links.5. I will now look at your banner/Text links problem, it's probably just misconfigured by you.--- Your messageI've been waiting for another two days now. Please get in touch with me about this matter TODAY, or refund my money. I feel that I've been very patient with you over the past month, but this is getting to be a bit much to deal with. I understand that I'm not your only client, but I paid you for all of this 3 weeks ago. You claim that I will still owe you another $70 as you feel I'd be better suited to use your other script. I offered to pay the extra money SEVERAL times, but you still have not sent me a bill, or done the work that needs to be done. If you can not have this done today then I want my $120 back so that I can hire someone that can. As it stands my affiliates can't get source code and I can't track the sales leads either. This needs to be taken care of ASAP.Jeffrey S. WyrickCEO FreeBoost.com-----------Last message---------------------------------------------I'm ok with that. If you follow my previous postings you will see that my Pay Pal account information is there. All I was waiting for was for you to send me a bill at billing@freeboost.com via Pay Pal, so that we could pay you and get this started. If you'd rather have me just send you the money I can do that, but I need your Pay Pal email address, which I'd also like to point out that I've asked for in the past. I don't mind paying for your time and services, but I do need them to be done quickly. This is why I agreed to the upgrade. Truthfully, I could have used the version that I bought, which is why I paid you the $30 for ThankYou.cig and then paid another $20 for the installation, but if you feel that it would be better for me to use the newer affilate program and it will spead things up with the install, then I am willing to pay the extra $70 to get this done faster. However, please note that this is my motivation. I am only doing this so that things will be done faster. As things stand the version that I paid for is not working completely either. I am able to sign up new affiliates, but they are not told where to go in order to get their affiliate source code. The program also does not allow me to upload banners, buttons or text links that can be used for people to do this either. On top of this the sales leads are not trackable at this point in time, but as you pointed out earlier this is partially my fault as well since I was still setting up the sales links. As for the order form, if it needs to be changed to better work with your program and make things so that each sales lead can still be tracked, please help me with this as I am not a programmer by any means. Normally I do great when it comes to installing CGI / Perl / PHP programs, but I must confess that your program has me stumped, which is why I need your help.Sincerely Yours,Jeffrey S. WyrickCEO FreeBoost.com-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, I'm just looking at it now (I am able to login this time). I have sat down to do this several times now, and each time there has been a problem on your end, be that not having the sales links setup, or not having access. Understand that you are not my only client, and I can't drop everything whenever you ask. I have also been waiting for your $35 payment. You said half now, half later. I will be able to setup your PayPal sales links, but I am not quite sure how we are going to work your formmail.pl order form. I need to know what price you want to use for each option. I could stamp each order email with the referring affiliate username, for you to add commissions later after confirmation.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Come on guys!!! This is the FOURTH day in a row! I needed to have this done weeks ago. If you can't finish the work please refund my money so that I can hire someone that will do this for us. Our billing address is billing@freeboost.com through Pay Pal. Please either refund our money, or finish installing the affiliate software that you've promised to install. I find it amazing that you have mentioned billing me for an extra $70 to do this on several occasions, yet you fail to live up to your end of things. I think that in all fairness I've proven that I pay my bills and I'm willing to do whatever I have to do. Now we need to have you show us the same willingness to devote yourself to this project, so that we can get all of this behind us one way, or another.Sincerely Yours,Jeffrey S. WyrickCEO FreeBoost.com-----------Last message---------------------------------------------If you are worried about being paid you can bill me in advance at billing@freeboost.com via Pay Pal for the extra $70, but I need some kind of guarentee that this will be done THIS WEEK, or we need to get a refund from you. I don't mean to sound rude, but it's been over a month now and we still don't have everything set up. I realize that the program can work properly and that the software is functional once it is completely set up, but it's not completely set up on our server yet. We need to ge to that point, even if it means that we have to pay you for the newer version of your script to do so.Sincerely Yours,Jeffrey S. WyrickCEO FreeBoost.com-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Is there anything that we can do to speed things along. As I said before, I'm willing to pay the extra $70, but I need some assurance that this will all be set up quickly. We are getting a lot of complaints from those that have already signed up and also from people that want to sign up. The idea of an affiliate program is already a HUGE success without any real promotion at all, but we need to make sure that everything is set up and running smoothly before we can start telling more people about our new affilaite program. Please get back to us about this as quickly as you can. We may also be interested in using this ticket system, but if we do that we should be able to set things up ourselves, as I'm fairly sure that this is no where near as complicated as the affilate program is ;o)Sincerely Yours,Jeffrey S.

I am using the information below. It keeps giving me a password error.--- Last messageHello, I have been waiting a week for you to get back to me, you were telling me it was all a big rush, then I have to wait for you. Now your blaming it on me again? Ha. I sent you the manuals for both AllAffiliatePro and the LinkCodeGenerator last week. I'm loggin in now to make the neccisary configuration. Once again my PayPal email is "webmaster@cosmicperl.com".--- Your messageI'm signing off for the night now. I would like to point out that in all of this I have patiently waited and made payment after payment to you for services, even though I still do not have everything set up completely. As your past performance has proven to take quite some time what I'd like to offer is to pay HALF now and HALF if you can have this done within the next 24 hours. I don't mean to sound rude, but we've been waiting to have all of this up and running for almost a month now. The last week has been due to other outside work that I had to do, but other than that we have been waiting for you to set things up for us. First we paid you $70 for the original script. Then we paid you $30 more for ThankYou.cgi, which I'm still not sure why we needed it and why it was not included in the original script if it was needed.....on top of this we have also paid you another $20 for installation. I believe that we have proven to you that we do not mind paying for the services that you offer, but in all fairness I would like to see things done a bit faster. I would also like a README file that I can use to set things up on our end and also so that I can set up a web based instructional for our affiliates. I am already getting complaints from people that have signed up and are frusterated and also from people that have been waiting for months to sign up while we looked for a good program to use and then had it installed. As I've said in the past you have other programs that we would be interested in learning more about, but we need to see the affiliate software fully set up and running smoothly first. I'd also like to point out that as I own a web hosting company I would be a GREAT source for referrals, but again I'd like to see the affiliate program running smoothly first.Sincerely Yours,Jeffrey S. WyrickCEO FreeBoost.comHello, I still haven't received the $70 payment from you for the AllAffiliatePro upgrade. I'll finish things off once this payment is received.--- Your messageSorry it's taken so long to get back to you, but we have been very busy over the past few weeks. We have now got all of our prices posted on our website. Please go ahead and interlink things so that our affiliates will get credit when a sale is made. Our sales order form is located at order.html in order to simplify things. We have also made all of our Pay Pal subscription and web accept buttons in text, rather than to use the form method that they normally use. We did this in the hopes that it would make things much easier on you when setting up the affiliate program for each of these links. The two pages that have payment links on them are hosting.html and design.html. We also wanted to mention that we are having problems uploading new banners to the affiliate software script. I was hoping to be able to use buttons, banners and text links, but I have not been successful at setting any of them up yet. I also need to know where my new affiliates can go to get the source code for each button, banner or text link for thier own websites. Our FTP information is shown below as a reminder, just incase you need it :o)Domain: freeboost.comIP Address: 216.40.242.20(host name/address = ip address)Host Type: UNIX(standard)User Name: jwyrickPassword: jspw012571If you have any questions at all please emial me, or call me if you need to. I'm very eager to start adjusting the html within the script so that it blends in to our website. I did want to point out that people have been able to sign up as affiliates, which is great....and no one has even asked why your logo is still on top of the affiliate pages....anyhow, our next step is to get things set up so that they can add our buttons, banners and text links to their website in order to promote ourservices. As I mentioned above we also need to make sure that all of our payment links work, so that each affiliate will get credit for the sale. By the way, how will I know who get's credit for each sale? If I'm correct, the affiliate can log in and check their statistics. Do I have to do the same thing, or will their be an affiliate number on the top of each order form that comes in, thus identifying where the sales lead came from?Sincerely Yours,Jeffrey S.

Currently on our web site, www.satansplayhouse.com, we have an affiliate script that is used with our shopping card (paypal). However, we are thinking to replace the current affiliate script. Do you have an affiliate program that will work with PayPal, such that it can grab the variable (total sale generated from Paypal) and calculate the percentage commision. The program that we require MUST be able to grab the total sale generated from PayPal and calculate the commission. Please do not hesitate to contact me. Any advice or suggestion will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Please open the HTML file installguide.html for the installation procedure.--- Your messageHi,I recently purchased your Cosmic Mailing Software. I was wondering if you could please help me with a question I have. I have unpacked the zip file to the following directory and read the readme file.C:\Unzipped\cosmicmailinglist\In the readme file it says to open the file index.html within my browser (which is IE5.5) I have done this and at the bottom of this page it has a link which says Click here to start the install. But when I click on this link this page is displayed.file:///C:/Unzipped/cosmicmailinglist/install.cgi?want=startAnd a cgi file is loaded into the browser. In the browser I see only the following.#!/usr/local/bin/perl##-----------------------------------------------------------------#### #### #### © Copyright CosmicPerl.com 2001. All rights reserved.

There seems to be no other links or anything to install this file. So I am curious as to what I am doing wrong? Do I have to set file types via explorer so this file is loaded in a different way? As the install.html says that the following pages will guide me through the setup and installation process. It also says to please read every page carefully, if you find you cannot complete a page with the required information then do not complete the installation. It then says to gather the information needed then continue.But the problem is that there is no other pages that guide me through the setup.I hope all of this is making some kind of sense to you and not just jibberish. I am trying to explain it to you the best way I can.If you can please let me know what I am doing wrong or if I have to set file types for the cgi file that gets loaded in the browser for it to guide me through the install I would greatly appreciate it.Or if you do not understand any of this please let me know and I will try to explain it better for you.

I seem to be having a problem with Cosmic Mailing List in which I am hoping you can help me with please. I have set it all up and everything seems to be working great apart from one thing. The problem I am having is when someone tries to add their email address to the list after pressing the submit button via the addemail.htm. I get the Mailing List Thank You page alright and its stating that an email has been sent to the address with instructions confirming the addition of the email address. The confirmation email arrives as well with the instructions to click on the link at the bottom of the page to be finally added to the list. But the problem I am having is when I click on this link my browser just opens up an empty page and no message is stated that my email address has been added. Then when I go and check to see if the email address has been added in the admin section. It is not displayed.Here is a copy of the email that is sent out to me.Welcome to Kelletts Hobbies mailing list. You are one step away from being able to receive E-mails from us. Please could you click on the link below to confirm your addition to the list. http://www.kellettshobbies.com/cgi-bin/cosmicmailing/mailinglist.cgi?want=displayconfirmaddemail&email=cybagirl@usa.com&mailinglistname= Now from what I can tell for some reason or another the script is leaving off the mailing list name in the email that is sent out and I think this is why the confirmation page is not loading for. In this case the name of the list is called updates.Can you think of why this would be doing this for? Is there something else I have to configure in the admin section? As I am at a total loss as to what to do next and I am hoping you can please help me.I noticed this same thing also happened when I tried signing up my email address to the example page of Cosmic Mailing List. But it did not do this when I signed up my email address via your fully functional and working list from your site. I recieved the confirmation email and I confirmed my address and it loaded the page saying my email address was added.Any information and help will be greatly appreciated as I am very eager to get this mailing list up and running.Kind RegardsErica Sievers¦None.¦0¦12:25:2001¦12:30:2001 66884731¦Joe Jordan¦joe@zorgco.com¦Affiliate softare (oops)¦Hello, Doesn't it have a chomp after the close file handle?--- Your messageHi, sorry about that hit send before I had finishedanywayevery $adminpass = needs to be changed tochomp($adminpass = );because you compare them later, and the passwords never match the with newline on the end (there will be a newline on the end if someone has edited adminpass.txt with a text editor, or if your scripts add one).also, you have this:if ($WHATWANT{'want'} eq "changepasswordform") { &passcheck(); &changepasswordform();} ## End ifhowever the changepasswordform() method also checks the password so it isn't really necessary.Thanks,Joe¦None.¦0¦12:26:2001¦12:30:2001 384927516¦Chad Proctor¦aaa@instant-traffic.com¦Need to finish!!

I have added your suggestions to the list.--- Your messageDear Cosmic Perl Staff,I just wanted to say thanks for all your valued help with helping me get the Cosmic Mailing List program up and running. I finally have it up and running on one of my customers website and it is a fantastic program. I sure am glad I eventually found your website and I will be purchasing more site licences in the future!I would also like to point out that I have tried many other mailing list programs in the past and some I have even paid for. But none of them come anywhere near your program for features, ease of use, setup and tech support. Unlike other developers that I have paid good money to recieve support from and ended up recieving nothing! You came through and helped me when I needed it the most and I appreciate the way in which you have conducted your business towards me.I would highly recommend your Cosmic Mailing List to anyone who is considering purchasing it. Its a fantastic program packed full of features and is great value for money.You are also most welcomed to use/edit the above message in any promotional way you see fit.Also on a final note for now. There is just a couple more features that I would really like to see in the program to make it the Ultimate Mailing List! I am not to sure if you can incorporate these or not. But hopefully you will be able to. As I think these would be great additions and are worthy of mentioning them to you as per your request via the help files in Cosmic Mailing List.1. I would really like to see a feature that sends out an email with that persons IP address, user name and password they tried to use to the list owner, if someone tries to enter the admin area with the wrong username and password. Also loading a page that says to this person they have entered a wrong User Name and Password and mentioning an email has been sent to the list owner reporting his IP Address and information he used to log into the admin are. Also possibly displaying his IP address on this same page as well. Also this feature could be turned off or on depending on what the list owner would like.2. A feature in which can be turned off or on in which a report can be sent to the list owner to say how many emails were sent out.3. A feature in which an email is sent to the List Owner only when someone subscribes or unscubscribes to the mailing list. This email message can say something like someone has subscribed to your (mailinglist name) with the ip address (displaying their ip address here). This feature also can have the option of being turned on or off as well if possible.I guess you could say these are security features I would like to see incorporated into the mailing list if possible. As I once had a hacker destory my mailing list of over 420 people on it. He did this by using wildcards I discovered and it was a flaw in the cgi script I was using at the time. This is why I needed a more secure cgi script and hence purchasing your Cosmic Mailing List. As this allowed me to block certain email address's and domain names. Some of the above features were also included in another script I use to use as well.If you have any queries or questions at all. I would be more than happy to help where I can and I thank you once again for everything!Kind RegardsErica Sievers¦None.¦0¦12:30:2001¦1:02:2002 518185294¦Marc¦mrap@blueskyprojects.com¦Mailing List install?¦-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, Installation is usually within 1 day.--- Your messageHi We are trtying to install your mailing list software for one of our clients.

You should unzip the file and open the html file index.html which will have links to the install guide and usage guide. The install guide will tell you which files to upload to your server. You then run install.cgi and follow instructions. If you cannot read .html files from your cgi-bin then you have two options:-1. Install the files outside the cgi-bin. Most hosts allow cgi's to run outside the bin.2. Install in the cgi-bin, and move the file join.html to a different folder. Only this file needs to be moved.I hope this helps.We do installation for $20.--- Your messageRe: allafiliate proI have a major problem here. I got to the install screen but that is the only thing that works. I followed directions to the letter but I also found out that no html files are allowed in my cgi-bin and I need to know which file to change to point to a root folder for the html files as absolutely nothing was said about uploading any of those to a seperate folder and the ones I had to upload from the program folder don't work in cgi-bin.What are all the other html files in the rest of the zip file??? Where do they go and why arn't there better instructions for this software?It is so confusing that I have not even looked at the 2nd zip, codemaker or whatever.To say I am disappointed is putting it mildly.Please help...

Integration is indeed possible, there are two methods we can use, the "callback" feature or adapt the response page. As for the changing commission, this is not supported. For this you would need a custom modification, or maybe even a whole new affiliate software developed.

Do they have a manual you could send me?--- Your messageHelloIs it possible to track visitors to my site if they reach it in a non-continuous session? By that I mean they logon to my site, download our driver software, log-off, spend anywhere between 1 hour and 1 month offline (or at least not visiting my site) then return and then enter into a Worldpay transaction session? ( I think we will be able to link to the "Thank you" page generated after the WorldPay session - perhaps you have experience with other customers using WorldPay??)If you visit our site, you'll see the problem (www.TreePlot.com) - customers will get referred to the site from an affiliate, but won't directly make a purchase during that session. I think the question I'm asking is "is the cookie persistent enough?" When a customer subsequently returns to the site (having originally been referred to it by an affiliate) to use our services again, does your software still recognise where they came from i.e. the initial affiliate reference? I'd like to pay a new customer bounty of $1 and then repeat visit commission of 50c, so need to be able to automatically track & deal with this.thanks in advance & kind regardsPaul Pestille¦None.¦0¦1:04:2002¦1:07:2002 902049976¦Ryan Black¦Ryan@sextoynation.com¦BannerClick¦Hello, Send a paypal payment for $60 to "webmaster@cosmicperl.com" and I will send you a copy of AllAffiliatePro.--- Your messageOK, I'll try that then.

These files are in HTML and totally configureable to adjust their appearance. The cgi files variables are already configured as an example of how the variables should be configured. BannerClick is one of our older products, and so is not the easiest program to configure. But is no different to most cgi scripts on the market. Our refund options are stated clearly on our Order pages. As the software is in working order I am not authorised to issue you a refund. If you are having problems getting the script to run then our staff will be more than happy to help with any problems.If you want higher quality affiliate software then you can upgrade to AllAffiliatePro for $60. AllAffiliatePro has many more features and functions.

AllAffiliatePro has an update coming out very soon includeing 2-tier commissions, and a bunch of other new features. AllAffiliatePro comes with the linkcodegenerator, which generates the exact linking code for affiliates, you can see this looking at the example. For affiliateclick you make a html page full of your banners for them to download, and tell them what link to use and where to insert their username. Affiliates should download your banners and upload them to their server. Yes you can ommit fields from the join pages, you can also add new fields. The new version of AllAffiliatePro will come with much improved fraud security. Code is in place to check for a valid referer.I hope that answers the questions.--- Your messageThanks for the reply. That sounds ideal to me.I'm now looking seriously at the AffiliateClick package (the features of AllAffiliatePro would be surplus to requirements), but do have a few questions regarding its functionality:1. How does the affiliate get the banners, tracking code etc.? On the example pages, only stats are to be seen once logged into the affiliate's area.2. Who hosts the banners? Do we host them, or do the affiliates?3. I understand the joinup page is customisable - does that mean we can ommit certain fields? (we intend to pay affiliates using PayPal, so we only need their name & email address, not physical address) - is this possible (we don't want to collect info we don't need)?4. Is there some kind of anti-fraud system in place to prevent a tech savvy affiliate calling the 1x1 tag from another server (ie. we only want the img to be able to be called from our server, and declared invalid otherwise). I think that covers it...Thanks,Graham-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, If you have programmed your own shopping cart then integration will be very easy for you.

Once okayed, they click a link back to our site (a thank you page) which completes the purchase. So the question is, what would be the most intelligent and secure way of integrating your packages into our site?You can take a look at our site at:http://myfags.com/ (click on "Products" to get a feel for how our order system is laid out.)Our payment processor provides the ability for us to input as many of our own hidden fields as we like.Thanks,Graham¦None.¦0¦1:23:2002¦1:24:2002 596602025¦Allan Ostrega¦ano@neuralvoice.com¦All Affiliate Pro¦Hello, In answer to your questions:-1.

I can pass you over to our custom programmer Jeff and he will give you a quote for any modification you want.--- Your messageI seem to have been mistaken as to your definitions when I was inquiring before purchasing. I enquired about the ability to do a manual verification check [linkbot program] which checks the links via a program instead of automatic verification when they submit a site.This was one of the main reasons I purchased your software. As my link list grows, it would be very time consuming to check all links manually and continually check them.However, since i have already purchased the program, what would be the cost of customizing the script to include a linkbot type script. I hope that it is not too expensive as I could have brought a similar script around the same cost as Directory Pro. Whilst the script is being programmed is there some way to tick a box for Link Trading sites and the automatic script will check those sites and not the non-reciprocal sites.Eagerly awaiting your reply.Michael McAuliffe-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, I'm sorry if the auto chmod did not work. This is out of our hands and decided by your hosting company. In answer to your questions:-1. The next version, V3 is currently being programmed, as is due this year.2. When you view the sites in a category, there is a link for each site, clicking this you can view the site and manually check for a link back.3. When viewing sites in a category, there is a heading "AffiliateTrade". If they have added a return link this is set to 1 and they will be ranked higher. If it is set to 0 then they will not be ranked higher. Modifying the site details (or just clicking modify with no changes) will check again for the return link and set AffiliateTrade to the value 1 or 0.I hope this helps.--- Your messageHi,Just installed Directory Pro on my server. You might want to include some info on not being able to create a categories.dta file when you are adding categories. I was completely frustrated because the auto chmod did not work, i did everything to the letter and when i added categories the message popped up about not being to create a categories.dta file. I worked it out. Your searchdata folder needs to be chmod to 777 and then it works, on my server chmod 755 is not enough.1) Wondering when the next version might come out?2) Also can't seem to find the link in manager.cgi to check the links manually, to check for the link back.3) I recall you telling me that the program handles the reciprocal / non-reciprocal sites well, as in to list the sites with recip higher and the sites which don't have recip lower.

If your site is very big, you may use style 2.style 2) turn off "web search", add necessary sites and use Cron, telnet or ask admin run "run_spider.cgi"style 3) turn on "web search", add necessary sites and use Cron, telnet or ask admin run "run_spider.cgi"what do you think of it?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hi, Ok, that sounds good. I want it as an option for the user if he wants an automated web search. But I also want the script to be able to be used as a site search, or only to spider submitted domains, and not grab links to different domains. So when setting up ASRS the user should have 3 different search engine style options:-1. Site search, where they input the URL to their home page, and their whole site is spidered, only pages from their domain. If this times out, they will have to run the function several times to spider their whole site until done.2. Specialised search, where webmasters submit their sites to the search engine, and only pages from those domains are spider, not links to other domains. So Whole sites are spidered, but only submitted sites.3. Web search, where the spider follows all links, and Cron will need to be set up to keep the spider running.Is that ok?--- Your messageHello.I also thought about such variant, but, in order to find all the links, the spider will have to read all the pages from the site. But, even if the spider is working with "localhost", it takes much more time to read content of the pages, than to index them and put them to the database.So won't win a lot of time.I have one proposal.Its minus is that script installation will become a bit more difficult.But, on the other hand, the script will posses full autonomy and it will be absolutely universal. It will work with any servers and operational systems. The proposal is following: we won't make script, automatically running "spider.cgi". Let's user make it himself with the aim of his concrete hosting. May be, a user have an access to crontab, or, may be, he may deal with the server by telnet. There also may be some equivalent programs, more convenient or more effective. And, may be, even the user may e-mail to administrator, in order to ask to run "spider.cgi" at the server. So we will have to write in install notes, how to run "spider.cgi" with the aim of crontab and telnet.In general, to tell the truth, I think, that ASRS is rather proffesinal program for serious purposes, zo its main attribute should be effectivity, autonomy and security, but not social ease. It's not a program, like BBS or guestbook.Of course, I understand, that it doesn't support "Cosmic Perl" principles of "easy install", but still, please, think about this variant. I really think, that proffesional and cheap search engine with automarical spider can bring you more money.Bye.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, Here is what I suggest:-Split the spider into two stages. The first stage to grab url's. So when this times out it's ok. The second to index the pages into the database. Have this one limited, so that it finishes before the timeout, but it'll need to be run several times.I just going to bed now, so I will answer your other questions tomorrow.--- Your messageThank you.But let's discuss the spider a bit more.The matter is that spider is given not just some URLs, but URL of site start page, and then it finds all other pages of site with the aim of hyperlinks. And usually it'll time out earlier, than it finishes indexing of the site. So, I really don't know, what to do.To my mind, we should require from user, crontab to be installed.May be, such hosting will be a bit more expensive, but the spider will work much more effectively. And, to tell the truth, I think, that, if somebody wants to have his own search server, (s)he should use very good hosting. I think, you will agree with me, won't you?In fact, I've written the script, that can automatically work for a very long time. It automatically finds new pages at the site and pages, that had been updated. So, you understand, it will be very pity for us to loose its autonomy.It's really a problem for me.As for MySQL version, now it creates a new database with it's own name and then creates some tables there. Will it be ok? Or, may be, it would be better to make 2 different versions of modules for different hostings?And, by the way, can you give the URL of a server, providing NT hosting with MSAccess? I would like to read about everything myself.So, thank you.Please, think about spider. It's really very important.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, To tell the truth ASRS was one of the first programs I made when learning perl. No spider or anything, it just indexs pages that are submitted. That's why it was taken off the market, because it was so crap.With regards to the spider, here are my thoughts:-From the management area, the user should be told how many url's are ready to be indexed by the spider, this is from webmaster submissions and url's the spider has previously picked up. They should have the option to index these url's, which would set the spider off. There should be a max number for the spider to try so that it doesn't time out, if there are more than the max then this should be split down into several groups, where the user will need to select to index each group. Cron and whatever the WinNT equilalent is should be as an option to start this function automatically at timed intervals.With regards to MSAccess, I think this varies from host to host. I've noticed some only give the user 1 database, with an unlimited number of tables, I have seen the same for MySQL hosting accounts. So if you make it to work with this principle, then it should work on all host, although some will need to create their database.I hope this help. I think for future projects I will do a full design instead of just giving you a list of features, which should make things much easier.--- Your messageHello!I have a question about the first version of your ASRS. To tell thetruth, I've not found any subroutines, indexing pages or working withthe spider.I'm asking about it, because there is a problem with spider starting.As far as I undestood, there will be some additional server requirements,so that it would be able to keep spider process alive for a long time.I mean such option as crontab.What do you think about it? Do you have any other ideas?And also there is a question about MSAccess version: don't you know, when the user register at server, supporting MSAccess, will the server give him his own individual system DSN?

This is due to incompatability with card processors, as they do not offer calling the tracking software on rebills. You can however offer set commissions, and many program offset the recurring revenues by offering a very high percentage, often as high as 100% or higher. That way your affilate gets all the first sale, and you just earn through recurring commissions.In answer to your questions:-1. Yes it integrates with the thankyou page. Ease depends on your card processor.2. Yes. With AllAffiliatePro you can set the lifetime of the tracking cookie to however long you want, be that months, or even years.3. This is not trackable as explained above.4. You would need some specialist modifications to acheive this.5. Installation is charged at $20.--- Your messageHello,I have a dating service website that charges monthly membership fee. I wish to offer affiliate program to other webmaster with recurring commissions.Obviously, it says that your AffiliateClick is for commission or a flat fee. But I didn't find how it exactly works, so I hope to ask you few questions:1. Does the software track the sales by "Thank You" page? If it does, is it easy to integrate with my payment page?2. Some visitors sent by other sites may register as Basic members (free) BUT later upgrade to Premium Membership (fee required), is there any way I can track where these members came from 3 months or 5 month ago? (While my affiliates can track them too.) So I can pay the webmaster commissions?3. If a Premium member decides to quit or cancel the membership, would I know which site sent this member to me before, so I don't have to pay that webmaster anymore?4. I offer two kinds of sales: one for "membership," one for "points" that members can buy first and then use them to pay the services later.I may want to offer two choices for webmasters: for example: (1)$5 recurring commission for a premium membership. (2) 50% one time commission for "points" salesCan I do that with your software?5. I didn't click on payment page, ( I didn't see it from other pages), do you charge for installation? I will try to instal it myself if it's easy, but I am not sure if I can get them all right.Thank you for your time.Jim¦None.¦0¦2:11:2002¦2:20:2002 648898932¦Michael Bryant¦mike@whipcitytool.com¦AllAffiliatePro Integration¦Hello, AllAffiliatePro costs a one time $139.

What we can offer to you reasonably, is using AllAffiliatePro off the shelf.You could give your super affiliate(s) a higher percentage, while all other affilates get a set rate. But you would only be able to offer one commission rate. So instead of offering group1 50% group2 10%, you would just offer 30%, or which every go between percentage would suit best. You could calculate this accurately with some simple maths. I.e.Lets say your monthly sales from affiliates for group1 is 50, and for group2 100. So affiliate comission for G1 would be 25 and for G2 10 (50%, 10%), so a total of 35. The percentage of 35 from the total sales (G1 + G2) 150, is 23.3%. So instead of offering two different percentages you could just offer a flat 23% (or 25% to look cleaner).I hope this helps.--- Your messageI am looking to sell two groups of products. One with a 50% commission and another group with 10% commission. Is it possible to use your software?I know I can set individual affiliate rates (pay one a higher commission per sale).

I think that most, if not all of the problems I have experienced have arisen from the fact that I had to do a manual install rather than the automatic install.The remaining problems are these:1) When a confirmation e-mail is sent to someone requesting subscription, the person’s name (theirname) and the list name are missing from the URL to click on. This is what I get, http://www.prime9.co.uk/cosmicmailing/mailinglist.cgi?want=displayconfirmaddemail&email=st@jemweb.co.uk&mailinglistname=2) After receiving an e-mail sent from the list, clicking on the unsubscribe link at the bottom, displays the appropriate page, but the entry is not actually removed from the list.I would be grateful if you could let me know how to remedy the above.When a manual install is required, it seems that the folder for CosmicMailing MUST be “cosmicmailing” otherwise certain functions do not work at all. Your instructions say that the folder is USUALLY named “cosmicmailing”.Also, the instructions do not give the default names for the data and upload folders – I suspect that this may be the cause of the problems that I am currently experiencing.On the second HTML install page are these questions:“Enter the upload path for data to your mailing list. This is the relative path.” “Enter the data path for data to your mailing list. This is the relative path.”What exactly do these questions mean – what IS the upload path for data, and relative from where, to where?Apart from these difficulties, I think that CosmicMailing is a fine piece of software (incidentally, I had no problems at all with the free version).¦None.¦0¦3:06:2002¦3:10:2002 386598020¦Jeff Davenport¦trojan-g@trojan-gambling-directory.com¦Error Message¦Hello, I have fixed the problem.

As it's only $69, you could purchase, and try it out. It will handle quite a large load of traffic. If you want a quote for making a MySQL version then I will need to pass you over to Jeff, our custom programmer.--- Your messageHi!I have been sniffing around your site trying to find out more about Directory Pro. Basically I need a strong, reliable script to run an adult search engine/portal www.sexlocate.com I only have a limited budget, so I can't afford to have something built from the ground up.The general idea is for the site to generate traffic for it's self and for my other sites, and of course to pull in revenue in a number of ways. I like the sound of Directory Pro. I like the fact that I can manipulate the top listings, and the category and keyword specific advertising. I also like the fact that I could sell the top listings. I am really after something that runs off a MySQL back end and is capable of running a large, high trafficed, fast search engine.I can't really get a very good idea of how good your script is from your site. Are there any more working examples I could take a look at? Is there a try before you buy?The features I would ideally like are:# Search box on every page I.e. search box will link to the script and work from any external sites that wish to have a search ability that will take the surfer to sexlocate.com and present the search results.# External URLs to open in new window leaving sexlocate on the screen.# Ability to spider target URLs, particularly for administrators to add non submitted sites. Not so much for 3rd party submissions.# Ability for multy level administrators.# The look of the site must be easy to configure and updateable using simple HTML.# Back-up capability# Link trading feature. Link back not compulsory, but sites that send most traffic get a higher listing in search results.# Session URLs to allow webmasters to see the search words when checking their referals, and to allow search to be passed on to other engines.# Multi level catagories.Can you give me some idea how well Directory Pro fits the bill and let me know how much customisation costs would be.Also it looks like you are based in the UK. I hate Paypal, so let me know if a direct trade is possible.Thanks for nowAlP.S. www.sexlocate.com has two search engines at the moment that I have been trying out. The first one you will see by going to the base URL. It's crap! The second one is at www.sexlocate.com/go/ It's a PHP script. Has some great features, but also some bugs, and it is not very configerable as you can see by the messed up version that is there at the moment.¦None.¦0¦3:13:2002¦3:13:2002 820165540¦Russ Grimble¦webmaster@ukloansuk.co.uk¦Affiliate software¦Hello, It sounds like AllAffiliatePro is the package that best suites your needs.

So if we cannot get it to work then you have no worries. I recommend you go ahead and order.--- Your messageMy problem is our order process itself. We are a hosting company and we use a "provided" order form that automates the domain setup process, but it resides on our provider's server. We only have the ability to edit the text of the confirmation page and should be able to insert basic HTML, I am just concerned that we will not be able to fire up the AffiliatePro script from the confirmation page.Do you have a trial version of AffiliatePro that we could install and test? If I can install the script and get it to work, we would definitely purchase a license, but I can't purchase it until I know it will work with our current order process, and I have a lot of doubts that ANY program will work since we have so little control of the order process.Thanks again - ------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, Ok, here's what we can do. If you are offer a set Flat per sale amount and not a commission on sales, you can set the amount to anything. As for the ID, I can modify the script so that it records the customers IP address instead (to prevent duplicate affiliate commissions for the same order). Is that what you wanted to hear?--- Your messageSorry about that... Thanks for your response.If we plan to initially offer a standard "price per sale" then can I assume that in your example below you would not need any variables from the order form such as "amount"? Basically I just need the script to capture the cookieID and increment that affiliate by 1 sale when the thank you page is displayed. Since there are no percentages involved in paying out commissions, I would not need to capture any of the form information, just need to know if it was successful, but even that may not be possible unless it can search a string of text for a word like "Congratulations".

However, they allow me to have various instalations on my account, which allows me to set different final pages for each one, the content of which I control.

Paul Dyson-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, Are you using a Card processor? Or a shopping cart to process orders.

I have some questions though.My server is W2000 Advanced and I have a total access to the box since it is a dedicated computer at my ISPs location. Hence I can install whatever I want, including Perl 5, and make whatever modifications are needed.Questions to AllAffiliatePro:1) My shopping cart is ASP-based (the box is running IIS5) and I have the complete code which can be customized. Can you see a problem incorporating your prgram under this scenario?2) regarding installation: There are multiple web sites on the box, but only one (perhap two) will need the AllAffiliatePro. How is your program installed - per server or per web site? In other words, could it conflict between two web sites on the same box, or could it hamper any web site located on the same box but NOT using the program?Questions to your TellAFriend:1) Naturally I would need the script to send different pre-set messages from different web pages of the same site. Is this possible with your script?2) You mention "email database" in features, and bulk mail option. Does this mean the script keeps a database of emails used? If so, does it keep the email addresses of the senders, or the (multiple) recipients, or both?3) Can it be incorporated in ASP pages?Some of the questions may be borderline naive, but I have learned to rather ask questions than jumping to wrong conclusions :-)Thank you.¦None.¦0¦3:22:2002¦3:25:2002 826113314¦Merle¦merle@merlesworld.com¦Your Software¦-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, Yes this is possible.

You will need to respond to this e-mail quickly in order to halt the official investigation by HSBC International which I am about to order against you and your dishonest online activities.I made my order for AffiliateClick on the 19th of March 2001, after receiving assurances from yourselves of detailed after-sales support for which I specifically asked. After having to chase you up for the software I finally received it a few days later.The software package was incomplete. On numerous pages on your website you claim that your Link Generator program comes with ALL your affiliate programs. This program was not included. I immediately and repeatedly asked for this to be sent and received no response from yourselves.After carrying out the installation instructions to the letter I found that your program would not work. This may be a problem in your instructions, or in my interpretation of them, rather than a problem in your script, but since every time I contact you concerning the matter I am ignored I have been unable to ascertain which is the case.This failure to respond to ANY of my communications since sale is clearly in breach of your assurances given before the sale. It certainly didn't take this long to receive a reply BEFORE the sale was made.If you would like to make amends by fulfilling your obligations then I will be glad to work with you and order the cessation of the investigation into your dealings about to be undertaken by HSBC International. If you fail to respond positively to this e-mail by the afternoon of Tuesday 26th March 2002 (GMT) then I will be forced to initiate the investigation, which may affect your credit rating and / or lead to the termination of your capacity to accept credit card payments online.I sincerely hope that matters need not deteriorate to this degree and that an amicable agreement can be reached soon.Yours sincerely,J.

If you follow it and then go to cookiegrab.cgi in your browser:-http://www.thevsp.com/cgi-bin/aap/cookiegrab.cgiYou can see that the affiliate name is being logged and spat out. I'll have another look at your form system. A copy of the script code would be useful. I'm not a html wizz so the ssi call I gave you could be wrong, as the script is definately give the affiliate username.As for the commission problem. AllAffiliatePro works off only one commission setting (or ones for individual affiliates). It could not be made to work the way you are suggesting. All I can suggest is that you keep the percentage fixed, and vary the sale amount accordingly (the affiliate never gets to see the sale amount). Or offer a flat per sale program of say $10 per sale, and enter seversal sales to make up the affiliates commission amount.I've just had a look at your form and I see what the problem is. The SSI tag is not being parsed. This is probably becasue your server is setup to only parse ssi tags in pages with the extention .shtml. So you could try it with the extention .shtml (which would mean changeing all your forms and links) or I can give you a .htaccess file which tells your server to parse all html pages for ssi (if you already have a .htaccess file then you would just need to add a line to it).--- Your messageGot the LinkCodeGenerator to work, placed a link on a page and clicked on it.. and it loaded the main page as it should. I attempted multiple ways of inserting the "getcookie.cgi" code you provided but it is not coming through on the form to identify which affiliate referred a client.I logged into the ADMIN interface of AllAffiliatePro and was able to see all the referrers as well as log in to the Affiliate Interface and was about to see the recorded click throughs.In the ADMIN interface, I went to add a sale to the affiliate ID created and it recorded it as it should. However, if I change the commission rate for that affiliate... it takes that new percentage and figures the income for all sales based on that. In my scenario, commissions will be based on the amount of each project from anywhere from 10 to 25%. Since I will be basically manually entering the sales for an affiliate and have to associate a Sales Order with that - is there a way I can associate a percentage earned for each sale vs. an overall rate for all sales?I am battling between two affiliate program solutions, AllAffiliatePro and another one. AllAffiliatePro will allow affiliates to log in and check their stats without much being involved. With the other solution I am looking at... I would have create a database of some sorts, make it available on the web for affiliates to view similar information.So a few things:1. Can not get the "getcookie" code within the form to display the affiliate ID;2. Can not modify the overall commission rate without it re-calculating all record sales where I desire to associate a commission rate for each sale individually entered.3. Cross between to solutions... a semi-automated one and one which will require additional manual involvment.I have a few test pages for you to play with... 1. the AllAffiliatePro test link is at http://www.thevsp.com/statics/Activate.html2. the test form is located at http://www.thevsp.com/statics/designinquire_test.htmlThe ID for the test Affiliate throught the Affiliate Log in is "thevspco" with the password of "chadjeff"The ID for the ADMIN interface is still set at the default: admin and adminpass.Hope to rectify this as quickly as possible to try and meeting a April 15th, go live deadline.Thanks for you assistance thus far.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Hello, Login to the LinkCodeGenerator and add a banner or text link to the system. Then login to the affiliates area and go to get banners, you'll then have the affiliate code generated for you.--- Your messageCloser and closer... What is the URL for for an affiliate link?-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Strange... I attempted to access the CGI file last night before sending the message I did and I received Server Errors. Today, I load the CGI Install File and it comes right up. We did have several serveral accessibility issues most of the evening yesterday which appear to have been resolved from our ISP. I believe this may have contributed to the errors I mentioned.I will double check the settings through the install.cgi and test the getcookie file you loaded onto the server. If I have any other issues, I will let you know.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Was it working before when you first installed it? I guess it was, so you must have made some changes. You do not access install.html, but install.cgi to do an install. You cannot read HTML files direct from the CGI bin. If you do re-install, don't delete the file cookiegrab.cgi, and everything will be set to modify the forms.--- Your messageI am receiving an Server Error when attempting access the join file.. which I believe is what you were talking about... also I am receiving the same error when accessing the "install.html" file...I may have to reload it.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------I understand your question now.... I will check the permissions on everything to ensure they hadn't changed and give your suggestions a try.-----------Last message---------------------------------------------Were you asking if I had disabled something in regards to fully testing it?
