2 address displayed from a link. What gives?

  • Hi everyone, I was hoping someone might be able to give me some insight on what is going on with my link I’ve created.
    I made an image link to buy products from a beachbody website. here is the code:
    <ahref=”https://extranet.securefreedom.com/MillionDollarBody/csShopping/ShoppingCart.asp?Cat=&ProductID=&InvCountry=USA” title=”Shop Beachbody Products” target=”_blank”><img src=”/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/shopBeachBody.png”/>

    The problem I’m having is that when the image is clicked it gives me a 404 error and the address in the address bar is actually two addresses. The address of my site and the address of the site that I created a link to.

    I was hoping that maybe someone has crossed this path before and might have some insight. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

    The code above is errant. It has ” where it needs “, is missing a space before href, the &’s in the url should be encoded…

    That external site likely blocks direct url’s (ones not generated at the site or from a prefered referer)

    Try again.

    Thank you so much for the help! I knew it had to be something simple but I guess I was thinking too much into it.
    I’m not sure what you mean by “the &’s in the url should be encoded…”
    Could you explain?
