I just read about this on the 5 Star Affiliate Marketing blog. Commission Junction has backed down on requiring affiliates to use Javascript links. Looks like the outcry worked!
I am quite relieved. Commission Junction has some good programs that would be hard for me to replace, but I would have to if forced to make the switch to Javascript. There are just too many disadvantages.
Definately a good point. I actually gave up on CJ when I first heard about their plan, of course, only after a few comments about all the drawbacks of this switch. With this news I may in fact once again become interested. =)
Now I’m just waiting to see how long it takes for them to make it easy again to get HTML links, rather than still making you click for “Legacy Links”.
