Create a linkable page so people can share their stats

Create a linkable page so people can share their stats.

I figure that everything should look the same on the page, except without the ability to edit / delete things.

If possible, we should allow the person sharing their page to preset a filter for people viewing their page. For instance, when I share my bets, I'm going to want to people coming to my page to have the bets filtered down to bets with the tag "RX Recorded" at first.

If they want to play with my filters and see the other bets, they can, but I want the page to default to bets with the tag "RX Recorded" so that way it reflects my record that I've posted on the forums.

Did that make sense?

Can it default to that page by sending a link to them with that filter?

Since we are both logged in as you that works. I was thinking that I would set it to be

http://www.sharpbettracker.com/bets/view?sort=date,desc&tag=RX+Recorded&share=encodeduserid

I mean, ideally, the link wouldn't include the filter, since the links get kind of ridiculously long that way, but if htat's the only way to do it, well hey, that's the only way to do it.

to fix the long urls we should use the google short url service. this will provide short urls to users that are easier to put into forums.
