I recently have been researching some magazines/keywords that I think may be usefull. Upon finding a magazine brand, I found a merchent in Cj that carries that mag. But the problem is, when I try and strip just my aff code and not all the Img src crap and paste it into the destination URL in adwords it says its not a valid link. Also beside the get html box it says that all the HTML must be pasted to the website for the transaction to be properly tracked. I have simply stripped code for other merchants, why wont this work?

You can use the href part of the link without the img and target stuff.

Maybe I'm confused but I believe you have a CJ link and need to put it into adwords. A CJ tracking URL looks like this:

<a href="qksrv.com/click-PID-AID"><img src="qksrv.com/image-PID-AID"></a>
Where PID is your website ID and AID is the Ad ID.

If you are using adwords then you only want to use the part in italics. CJ tracking is based on the click, which means the image is not needed so you can also remove the entire img src tag.
