We recently got the following email from Auth.net. Is there a way for us to update to one of the new websites on our own? I'm not sure how to do this...

Akamai Network Technology

Over the coming months, Authorize.Net will be upgrading access to the Internet connections that serve our data centers. Instead of allowing direct connections, all Internet traffic will be routed through Akamai, a third-party cloud network service that routes and delivers Internet traffic.

Using Akamai network technology will help decrease latency and improve the reliability of our payment gateway. It will also help safeguard against interruptions caused by issues beyond Authorize.Net's direct control, such as Internet congestion, fiber cable cuts and other similar issues. Additionally, come October, merchants connected to Akamai should no longer be affected by planned downtimes.

Implementation Plan And Timeline

We are implementing Akamai's technology into our network in two phases.

Phase One (Now through June 2016) ? We have created three new URLs for transaction processing that are hosted by Akamai. You can update your website or payment solution to point to the new transaction URLs today, which will provide you with the immediate benefits detailed above. Come October, you should no longer be affected by planned downtimes.
Phase Two (June 2016) ? We will automatically direct all of our existing transaction processing URLs to connect through Akamai in June of 2016. After this change, all transaction URLs will connect to Authorize.Net through Akamai.
IMPORTANT: To take advantage of the uptime benefits Akamai offers, we recommend you proactively update your website or payment solution during Phase One rather than waiting to be automatically updated during Phase Two.

Updating Your Solution

The new Akamai transaction URLs that are available now are:

https://api2.authorize.net/xml/v1/request.api
https://api2.authorize.net/soap/v1/Service.asmx
https://secure2.authorize.net/gateway/transact.dll

Please contact your web developer or solution provider for assistance in updating to one of these new Akamai URLs.

I just placed an order on my own site and everything works great, but the receipt page that Authorize.net returns looks like a scrambled version of my Photo Cart Site. There are several links to Shopping Cart, Check out, Home, Enter Access Code, Redeem print Credit, Help, My Favorites, a button that reads "Click here to continue", and a "log In" link. The formatting shoves them all far right or far left.

the URL is: https://secure2.authorize.net/gateway/transact.dll

same as the payment form URL, but once payment is made, it shows payment in the middle of the screen and all those other confusing links

How can I edit that receipt page to remove all those confusing links?

BTW, I can't remember what this page ever looked like before...but I'd love to only see a confirmed payment with just a "Home" link here and nothing else.

Can you post a screen shot of what it looks like?

It was actually a receipt landing page our web developer created for us that took elements from our PC site. I'll get him to fix the formatting.

Thanks!
