interpreted = N
texte = I have a site that may be entered from multiple points, sometimes directly throught the entry.tpl, but many times directly to a results page where several of the manfuacturers that I carry have links on their page to direct buyers directly to a specific section of my catalog.I want to track where the users came from and I have put [SetHeader cart=[cart]]header39=[referrer][/SetHeader] on my entry.tpl, but if I put it on all my pages then won't this change the [referrer] to my own site as a user clicks from page to page???How do I deal with multiple points of entry and set this up so once the referrer is set, it stays set, even if the user clicks to a page that has another [SetHeader] command?Thanks, Mark B.
