texte = >Just curious to know if anyone has attempted to set up a system where>discounts are offered to customers depending on where they come from; in>other words, a visitor who clicked on ad banner announcing my site would>be given a discount depending on where the banner was located.This is easy since you control where the ad banners should link to. Create a link that carries a variable like this: http://www.yourserver.com/index.tpl&v.refferer=macintouchThis is assuming you map .tpl files for processing. Now check for the variable on the index.tpl page. You can now thank them with a special include file and then carry the variable on every page just like your cart (v.reffer=[v.reffer]) and then when you calcuate prices you can nest some commands to offer discounts.Hope this helps,Olin.....................................................................W O R L D P O I N T I N T E R A C T I V E OLIN KEALOHA LAGON director, website creationHonolulu San Francisco 2800 woodlawn drive 222 sutter street olin@worldpoint.com suite 170 sixth floor www.worldpoint.com honolulu, hi 96822 san francisco, ca 94108 voice.808.539.3978 fax.808.539.3943 cell.808.291.1610.....................................................................
