My site owner wants to do something that I can't figure out. When someone types in our URL, he wants the page to be a simple hello type with a sign up box for our newsletter. After they sign up, it will go to our main site. I did that with a simple redirect in my form code, but my problem is when the customer goes back to the site, he'll have to go thru the sign up again in order to get back to the main site. I figured a cookie type thing might be what I need, but what about those who disable cookies? I do simple site maintenance and don't really know how to write my own code or scripts. Any suggestions or can anyone help?
Thanks,
Terri

Don't use on page redirects as this could kill the site in Google etc.

You can do this sort of thig with PHP, server side javascript + cookies - so spend a day on the internet working this out.

Tell your client that sounds like a crap idea if he's hoping to generate sales with a website that wants you to give over important info before you've even seen the site.
