It'll be an option for the webmaster if that feature exists at all.
No encoding of your ID needed that I can see, though, just let you
use either any of the below URLs, whichever you choose.
This is easy enough:
http://domain.com/hosted/index.html?nads=chopsshit
http://domain.com/hosted/?nads=chopsshit
http://domain.com/hosted/index.html/nads=chopsshit
http://domain.com/hosted/nads=chopsshit
http://domain.com/hosted/index.html/nadsEQchopsshit
http://domain.com/hosted/nadsEQchopsshit

Chop would probably want to use this version:
http://domain.com/hosted/index.html/nadsEQchopsshit

As far as on hosted promos, all that foreign characters like "EQ" needs to be left out.

E and Q are foreign characters? So what, no letters allowed?

[Chop Smith]

If my affiliate id is 'chopsshit', yes the 'EQ' is foreign to my affiliate ID.
Now if the "EQ' is static, it is not a problem to do gnats=EQ%affcode%.

I fully understand the "QMYDPHPRDX" in StrongBox, but that kind of bullshit has no purpose in passing affiliate ids on promo stuff. If affiliate ids are top secret, then I might be the second most trusted person in this biz.

Ah, yeah, the EQ is static. These are equalivent:
http://domain.com/hosted/nads=chopsshit
http://domain.com/hosted/nadsEQchopsshit

EQ means =

The equal sign will work just fine for old Chop. Only have to hit one key.
