    I have a link that is being tracked from a nothing site and it looks like this
    http://www.domain.com/?testvar1;var=2

    When it clicks threw to our site it gives this..
    Disallowed Key Characters.

    It doesn’t like the ;

    is there a place in the site admin or on ftp that I can add this character to be allowed?
    The other site won’t change the way their site does the tracking and its a large site that we really want their traffic So I need to figure a way..

    Thanks

    you can set allowed character in config.php, check “permitted_uri_chars” in config.php

    Hi
    It looks like this is the place forsure..

    I changed it and also

    $config[‘permitted_uri_chars’] = “a-z 0-9~%.:_\-;”;
    $config[‘enable_query_strings’] = TRUE;

    but it still gives error.. anything else I need to do?
