Yes, that will work with CCBill. BUT... it also makes it difficult to track click-thru rates since you're counting a click-thru everytime a surfer hits the warning page using that kind of a link even if they never vsit the site tour.

Also, using PHP to pass the code from page to page will work regardless of what affiliate tracking package is in use.

To take it to the next step, using .htaccess and Mod Rewrite to embed the affiliate ID into the URL path instead of as a parameter dangling at the end has additional benefits. Check out the HFS that Simon has set up at FetishClub for an example.
