I have been working on this script for a long time now and I'm getting frustrated.
When you enter a url and generate the linking code, clear the form, enter a second url and create the code, it remembers the first URL. arrr

I want it to either save the generated code then create a new one under the first one.

Try it. Put a URL in, create code, Clear form, enter a second URL (different from the old one), create code and see what it does.

I came up with the idea I would just add a text box to copy and paste the generated code to, clear form, enter another URL and create code but it remembers the first code even after clearing the form... arrrr

Can someone please help with this script. If you have a site, I'd be glad to link to your site...

Here is where it is located for now

Thanks

Your code needs fixing, or re-writing, I'm going to do it now......

:D Here is your code re-written. I have done my best to understand what you want it to do, but I expect it will need tweaking to get the exact results :D
