At some point the FT changed how they had images in their emails. Things now disappear into a mass of redirects - no problem BUT I end up with a 500 error.
I use a loop with HTTPSend..HTTPMethod('GET', url); Starting with http://li.ft.com/imp?s=178326&sz=1x1&li=in-todays-ft&e=n...@nlh.co.uk&p=8430143520236 and using the location returned in the header I get the following trail 301 = Moved Permanently http://p.liadm.com/imp?s=178326&sz=1x1&li=in-todays-ft&m=7d018df1bddd1b258eeb9b800a3b2ab8&sh=1d78dc7106fea30f18ae253a76160190540a2d61&sh2=b8caeea3d255bccc1fe227f851ac177fd1df9734eb589f48d4abf828f061ee99&p=8430143520236&dom=nlh.co.uk 302 = Moved Temporarily http://p.liadm.com/ul_cb/imp?s=178326&sz=1x1&li=in-todays-ft&m=7d018df1bddd1b258eeb9b800a3b2ab8&sh=1d78dc7106fea30f18ae253a76160190540a2d61&sh2=b8caeea3d255bccc1fe227f851ac177fd1df9734eb589f48d4abf828f061ee99&p=8430143520236&dom=nlh.co.uk 302 = Moved Temporarily http://x.bidswitch.net/sync?ssp=liveintent&li_uuid=${USER_ID}&bidder_id=5298&callback_url=http%3A%2F%2Fp.liadm.com%2Fmatch_g%3Fbidder_id%3D5298%26muuid%3D${MUUID}&x=RTJ5Y19QIGA1AiEeRgtrWlkzUFVhVV0JXhtBN31UJWo= 302 = Moved Temporarily http://x.bidswitch.net/ul_cb/sync?ssp=liveintent&li_uuid=${USER_ID}&bidder_id=5298&callback_url=http%3A%2F%2Fp.liadm.com%2Fmatch_g%3Fbidder_id%3D5298%26muuid%3D${MUUID}&x=RTJ5Y19QIGA1AiEeRgtrWlkzUFVhVV0JXhtBN31UJWo= 302 = Moved Temporarily //p.liadm.com/match_g?bidder_id=5298&bidder_uuid= 500 = If I prepend http: to the last location things do continue and I eventually reach the result Is there a better way of handling redirects, and especially where the url is malformed?
