Need help with embedded tracking links

**tajtday** · 2006-11-27, 05:51 PM

Hello,

I am having trouble with the embedded tracking links. It is not very clearly defined in the manuals on how to do this. My question lies in this, I have made a template in dreamweaver consisting of a jpeg graphic that has 7 products inside the jpeg graphic. I have made link coordinates that correspond to products on our website. I want to be able to track who and where (what product) a person clicks on the email. The only way that I can figure is putting the tracking ID in the link coordinates tag. IS this correct or do I need to do it a different way? To better explain the links coordinates for those of you that don't know dreamweaver, it is a box that you draw around the product and add the link into the box that will direct the click to the specific product that they click on on our website. There are coordinates in this link to show where the box is placed on the email page/template. Also what exactly are the tracking links? when I set up the campain trackers, does it automatically generate a link or key to be put into the link? I am so confused please let me know if anyone has better info on this or can help me. I need to get this campain out today. I have also included a .pdf attached and code below to see what I am talking about.

Thanks,

Tony

Here is the code for the email below and smiley faces where the coordinate links are:
