Thank you
That's not a one-time link.

Hi Jerry,
I am sorry if I wasn't clear enough (I am not a native English
speaker)
I was refering to the link inside that page, i.e.
http://www1.tv-links.co.uk/link.do/1...cdc685826f7562
The "92c13de5a560befafbee63783cdc685826f7562" part is the one-time
part
Thanks again
Well, I don't see a link like that in the page.
But how you do it - typically a combination of using Apache's
mod_rewrite and a database. Set your url rewrite commands in the your
..htaccess file (or httpd.conf if you have root access). Any request in
the xxx/once directory gets directed to a script, passing the long
alphanumeric string as a parameter.
Previously, before you displayed the link, you created an entry in your
database, using the long alphanumeric string and the real destination.
When the user requests this uri, mod_rewrite redirects the request to
your script. Your script then looks up the long alphanumeric string in
the database. If found, it serves the appropriate page. If not, it
redirects to the Not Found page.
Not that hard. Exact details on how to do it depend on the database and
programming language.
