Hello all,

I am new to this forum, so Hi!

I have a question. I have a website that links to the following site: <SNIP>. You will see on this site, on the form, there is a 'If you have a promotion code, please enter it' box.

Is there a way of linking to this page from my site, and autofilling the box with our promotion code?

Any advice would be greatly appriciated, and I hope this is the most appropriate forum to post my message.

Kind regards,

Jonathan

Welcome to WebmasterWorld, ionatan!

Unfortunately unless you can get the site owner to change some code on that page, there is nothing that you can do.

You could 'push' the promotion code (say as part of the URL, but unless the other site owner adds some code to detect the code and populate the field, there is nothing you can do.
