*/
Header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" );
Header( "Location: http://www.fulltiltpoker.com/?key=MD...DUxMDAwMDAwMDA-" );
?> */
remove the two */
I then link to mysite.com/go/fulltilt/ every time I need to include my affiliate link and viola, instant redirection.
Doing this has so many advantages:
1. I can block /go/ in my robots.txt
2. No pagerank is "bled" to the poker room
3. I can change affiliate links on the fly (switching to PAW network, for instance)
4. I never have to search for affiliate links, I just have to remember the directory structure.

I am wondering what you do for stats for a page like this. If you put any html before the php is voids the script. Any suggestions?
Thanks for pointing this script out!
