Thanks!

http://gatherer.wizards.com still points to the old link. Is that going to change soon or do we still need to use the beta link?

Well it is still showing the old site now, but I'll just change my bookmark to the new site. Weird how I am actually in your neck of the woods and this is not changed yet :shifty:

When I click linked cards, I get a 404 error.

I'm getting "The page cannot be found" 404s from all the autocard links in the forums too. :weep:

Mainly, there should be some parsing and redirection of old links. The majority of site links are very broken now, and shouldn't be so in production.

Everywhere on the site are multitudes of links using your script (that needs cleaning, badly):
[code]function autoCardWindow(cardname)
{
win = window.open("http://"+gathererBaseURL+"/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?name="+useName, windowName, params);
//win = window.open("http://ww2.wizards.com/Gatherer/CardDetails.aspx?name="+cardname, windowName , params); why leave the commented out one?! bloat =\
}

function autoCardWindow2(cardname, set)

Skipping, it is likewise[/code]
If you change the scripts to point to a new coverter page on gatherer that looks-up id based on name input from url, and then displays the info, it would clean up any issues presently until your site has time to change all links (albeit it would not have to changed). I have not dev'd aspx, (anti-microsoft =p) but php could do this very easily.


Also IMO move the page to the same look as the main mtg site. There is this disconnect between the two that needn't be there (unless its for mobile, which doesn't seem to work).
