URLjr.com simply maintains a database of long URLs, each of which has a unique identifier. The function C will call the URLjr.com web site passing it your long URL and will return the shorter (URLjr) version. The function C does the reverse. C will accept as an argument either the full URLjr URL or just the URLjr identifier/nickname. If anything goes wrong, then either function will return C. Multiple submissions of the same URL will result in the same code being returned. =head2 EXPORT makeashorterlink, makealongerlink =head1 SUPPORT, LICENCE, THANKS and SUCH See the main L docs. =head1 AUTHOR Iain Truskett =head1 SEE ALSO L, L, L =cut
