problem wit links on other ppls blogs goin to my blog
-
hey..i noticed a strange thang tha other day and now today…wanna report it and see if its some problem wit my blog here…
when i clicked on tag surfer the other day (june 4), i was readin one of the blogs that came up on the list. there were several links to other sources on the blog. when i hovered over the links, the status bar showed they linked to my blog on wordpress (covenantbride.wordpress.com) and when i clicked the links they went to my blog, which returned the obvious error 404 “not found”, since the articles werent on my blog…of course i didnt recognize the titles of the blogs so i knew they werent on my blog…
when i opened that post on the author’s blog by clicking the title link on the tag surfer page, these same links in his blog correctly linked to his blog (on tha status bar and also by clicking), as im sure was his intent…i checked fa the same problem on other tag surfer blogs list and didnt find any problems. other blog links were fine…
i never had this happen before. i left a comment to the author about this problem and suggested he contact tech support (yall :) ) about the problem…the post in question is: Getting Back to Jesus link: http://histruthwillsetyoufree.wordpress.com/2008/06/03/getting-back-to-jesus/
============================
same problem today (june 6). tag surfer page link: http://covenantbride.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=tag-surfer1. the blog post in question is: http://beingbob.wordpress.com/2008/06/06/daily-bible-readings-friday-june-6-2008-9th-week-of-ordinary-time/ the link that links to my blog when the post shows up in tag surfer is in the first paragraph of the blog: About the sources used
if i read this blog in tag surfer, the About The Sources Used link opens my blog (covenantbride.wordpress.com/sites-of-particular-use/) with tha error 404 “not found” but if i open the blog on the owner’s site, the link is to his own blog and it works just fine…
2. the second post i found with this problem today is: http://smithadam.wordpress.com/2008/06/06/gospel-part7/
the links at the end of the post (Part 1 through Part 6) link to my blog from the tag surfer page on hover and if clicked actually opens my blog with error 404:
Part 1 link: http://covenantbride.wordpress.com/2008/05/31/2008/05/19/2008/05/11/2008/05/05/gospel-part1/
Part 2 link: http://covenantbride.wordpress.com/2008/05/31/2008/05/19/2008/05/07/gospel-part2/
Part 3 link: http://covenantbride.wordpress.com/2008/05/31/2008/05/19/2008/05/11/gospel-part3/
Part 4 link: http://covenantbride.wordpress.com/2008/05/31/2008/05/19/gospel-part4/
Part 5 link: http://covenantbride.wordpress.com/2008/05/31/2008/05/25/gospel-part5/
Part 6 link: http://covenantbride.wordpress.com/2008/05/31/gospel-part6/the last link (Part 7) correctly links to the author’s site on the tag surfer page and on his page also. again, when i open his post by clickin on the title link, the part 1-part 6 links are fine and link to his blog…
i checked the whole list of blogs and links that came up on the tag surfer page and there werent any other problems…
i didnt leave comments on these last 2 sites; i figured jus to contact yall directly…if u need more info lemme know…i use firefox (current version) browser, dell laptop E1505, winXP pro sp3; i have paid subscription to kaspersky internet security 7 (most recent update) for firewall, antispyware and antivirus and my pc is clean (scanned evrey day); and when i check up on kaspersky with nod32 or other software theres no virus or spyware…
i cant understand why this is happnein or what i should do about it…so…pls advise…thx…be bless… -g-

Have you looked at links in Blog Surfer before, and have they worked this way? It might just be a Blog Surfer thing.

never had this problem in blog surfer before…i use tag surfer menu at least one time each day sometimes several times to keep up with new posts… no problems until i noticed in my status bar the first post listed links to my blog (noticed on june 4)…i cant say if this been happenin a long time or if its new…i can say tha the links i mentioned are the only ones wit the problem…even tho there are other blogs wit links on them too, the others werent a problem…i wouldnt mention it except the links actually open my blog…yet when i open the page on the author’s blog site at wordpress, these same links are correctly linked and dont open my blog… anythin else i should check? … -g-

i used both blog surfer and tag surfer…but i definitely use tag surfer everyday…its wit tag surfer tha i found these problems…not wit blog surfer… i only use blog surfer once in a while

The issue is that the links in question were created as relative. In Firefox, you can highlight the links, right-click -> View Selection Source. You should see something that begins with
<a href=”../2008/05/31…
