HTML file used in a quicklink type system

Hi,I’m in the process of migrating from 5 → 6.5 and can’t find a solution for this…

In R5 we have a Quicklink type system which gives users a shortcut to documents. So if a person entered the URL below:

http://myserver/ql#123123

The ql.html file splits the URL at the # and redirects them to the document numbered. I realise this works in R6 by putting the full extension:

http://myserver/ql.html#123123

However, after upgrading does anyone know how I can redirect users who have entered /ql#123123 so they are redirected to /ql.html#123123? I can only think of a way of doing this without the #123123 part.

Many thanks

Kev

IS quicklink a product or a custom solution to your environment?

It’s a custom solution of sorts (although a very simple one!). I use javascript in the html file to return the numbers to the right of the # and reconstruct the URL to be redirected to:

My friend found a way round this:I set up the following URL->URL redirect:

/ql/*

/ql.html/*

cool
