Hi there i am new here
and i would like to know if there is available any kind of code or a script for cid generator that will send my html pages to the sites with corresponding cid.
for example if my ad is sending to wwww.my-web.com?cid=myweb
i want to have it changed also on the links that i have so i would track the ads properly with cid=myweb

Thanks in Advance

Welcome to WebmasterWorld haimont,

Do you mean external ads that when they link to your site youu can append that code to all internal links so you can track them through your site?

I use custom scripts to do that using php sessions in combination with my apache logs. I only use it on my secure site though because it just seems too intensive for my public site.

Though I am not 100% sure that is what you are asking.

Hi Jatar
Yes, This is exactly what i'm talking/asking about - i work with an affiliate network that track my clicks
and sales .. i send trafick through google adwords and would like to know exactly which campaigns brought in the sales - in order to do so i have to have on all my links the CID=whatever i choose - so i am looking for this generator which will plant in all the links with the cid number that i gave in the ad ...
i am not sure i can use PHP on my server - is there any kind of java code or even html?

Thanks a lot for your reply

I guess you could probably append the CID's using document.write but I think you will end up with js littered everywhere in your html pages.

There is no html answer that I know of.

Your best bet would be a scripting language of one flavour or another. Ask your host if you have access to perl, php or asp. We have forums for all 3 here to help out.
