Send the user back to a web page after Joining

In addition to going right to the Join page, you can also specify a web page that the user should be sent back to, after they have successfully joined the mailing list. This allows you to have a member jump to the join page from your web site, and then be directed back to the web site afterwards.

To enable this feature, specify the URL to go back to by appending and return= on the join= URL. For instance, for a join URL such as this:

    http://clio.lyris.net/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?join=bach

You could have the user directed back to the "Bach Home Page" with this URL:

    http://clio.lyris.net/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?join=bach&return=http://tile.net/bach
