Hi I'm not a Perl expert, and need some help please. I am currently using a script that redirects using a query after the url. (using question mark).

I want all present links to it to default to url I specify, not the query url. for example, this is how the links look:

http://www.thewebsite.com/cgi-gin/myscript.pl?http://www.redirectedurl.com

I want all of the traffic to that page to go to a default url. It shouldnt be that difficult, right? Here is the present script:

####### Redirection URL 
$ToUrl = $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'};

&Redirect;

####### Send to url pointed at by the hyperlink
sub Redirect
{
    print "Location: $ToUrl\n\n\n";
}
###########

Again, I do NOT want the query to be used. I tried just inserting a url after $ToUrl = but that did not work. Any help greatly appreciated.
