Cookie Question

Then on the tour, I carry that code in the links until the joinpage where I send the ccbill_referer (ref in the url) to the ccbill's page. Now, the obvious problem with this is that no cookie is set, so webmasters would be screwed over for returning customers. However, I also have an iframe on the indexpage of the tour that is linked to a blank page through refer.ccbill.com with the affiliates link. So that sets the cookie.

I'm glad to see you're doing some stats outside of ccbill, that's really been needed for some time now..

I don't like the iframe idea though. As an affiliate, I would send to the tour via the ccbill link. That also helps to build the trust factor as opposed to just trusting that you won't change something on your tour or that it breaks etc.

eg:

h ttp://refer.ccbill.com/cgi-bin/clicks.cgi?CA=xxxxxx&PA=XXXXXX&HTML=http://www.mypaysites.com/tour1/index.php?ref=your_ccbill_code
