Situation: I have ad units on other sites and when the user comes to my site I want to capture the string on the first page visit per session.

Goal: Capture initial visits page querystring and hopefully visitor fills out my form and then I would capture the querystring.

Problem: I am able to capture a query string from a single page and retrieve it later on another page during the session. I need to expand this idea so I can capture a query string from any page on my site and not just one single isolated page. So, my thinkings would be that I need to create a test upon capturing the querystring for the first time, and if the user goes to another page that either has a string or not that it doesnt over ride the the first captured querystring. Any ideas on how to do this, as I am stumped. I am using .asp with no code behind and the code that I am capturing the query is <%Session("RefID" = Request.QueryString("id";%>

Any help would be great.

why not make the page name the name of the session variable

<% session(request.servervariables("script_name") = request.querystring("id" %>

Hi Bob,

I agree with Dave. You need unique session names and the page name would work.

Kind regards, Patrick
