Hi everyone,

I have a little problem where i have a large list of urls, something like this:

www.site.com?32179873213
www.site.com?45435435434
www.site.com?98084349333

The urls pass through a couple of redirects before landing on a product page.

I need to find out which URL is which product page!

Any ideas without pasting all 10,000 of them into a browser and copying them back!

Thanks

Where from is that list originated?
How is it organized?

Its just a list of URLs in an excel file. No particular order. Its a data feed of affiliate urls.

I want to know what the destination url of each one is

The redirection is likely either from a configuration file (Apache httpd.conf or .htaccess) or there is a script handling the process. Can you start there? Or are you looking to script a process to do this for you?
