Hi-
This is probably real simple, but I'm new to sessions and all of my
Google queries lead nowhere.
One of my clients want to know what site originally referred the
people who actually buy their dvd. I've got a system using sessions
which tracks the original referrerr as the visitor moves around the
site just fine, but when they leave the site to go to Paypal and then
come back to the "thanks for your order" page, the sessions data has
been lost. Is there a simple way to get the session data to persist?
Or, do I need to write the referrer to a database and then query the db
from the thanks page?
thanks in advance
Garth
