Hi,
My Company owns a Search Engine.
I have a major problem with WebTrends Statistics:

- The User perform a Search and gets a Search Result Page with different Sites.
- The Sites are opened from the Result Page in Pop-up windows.
- The Problem is: The Site's owners don't get an entrie in his WebTrends Statistics.
- We didn't have this problem before when the Sites were openned in the main page.

Did anybody heard of this problem?
Is there a solution to this Situation?

I will really appriciate any kind of help.

Thanks,

Limor.

That's excactly the problem. The web server doesn't record referrer info when links are opened in a new window. So if it's important to send referrers I suggest you open links in the same window.
