Facebook won't accept prosper202 tracking link

Hey,

have a slight issue with my generated prosper202 link.

In prosper, under "step 7: Get links", I create my affiliate link.
It's a long one like this: http://myurl.com/tracking202/redirec...4=poop&t202kw=.

In Facebook, under "Choose a Facebook destination or enter a URL:" , I add my affiliate link above but it doesn't work. I also don't get a preview of the ad. I went through with the campaign and submitted it. It got disapproved immediately, saying I violate terms and shit, nothing specific.

So I went back, I put a normal link in there and it gave me an ad preview so I assume it's my custom prosper202 link that's fucking me up.

I tried googling the problem and couldn't find how to fix?

help

php redirect?

[PHP]
<?php

header("Location: http://yourp202link.com/?blahblahblah=blah&blahblah=lalala");


[/PHP]

<?php
header("Location: http://yourp202link.com");
?>
save it as track.php

and submit link like this to facebook... "http://www.yourdomain.com/track.php?utm_source=facebook"

Dont want to sound rude but I think you should read around more before you start spending on campaigns.
I was in the same situation and I've blown through money in the past because of my own ignorance.

@tono : you do sound like an ass, joking great to know you learn the basic

I hear Ya. It's definitely a concern of mine, jumping in and not getting a return in monies or learning. But it's actually the technical stuff that boggles me. Like the shit above.
So I still need help with me original question

That is not even technical stuff up there... It's like the most basic thing, every affiliate marketer has to do on a daily basis.
And you already got two explanations, even one step by step spoon-fed explanation by vipinext ;o)

But yeah, there you go again:

add your tracking link to php redirect
save it as something.php
upload to your landingpage/tracking domain
link to it from your traffic source
