Javascript. Something like:
links = getElementsByTagName("a");
for (var i = 0; i < links.length; i++) {
URL = links[i].getAttribute("href");
if (URL.match(/http/i) { /*Success!*/ }
// fix the data
links[i].setAttribute("href") =
"site-goodbye-page.cfm?extLINK=" + links[i].getAttribute("href");
}
}
Wrap in a cfhtmlhead and run on the page load. Won't catch
everything, but is good value for effort. You need to extend the
regex if you use absolute URIs in your site.
