Web Programming

I found this simple script on the internet by Ammon Johns. He was nice enough to share it as long as we give credit. His script was originally to track a referer. It sets a "referrer" cookie which you can pull into any document using the php code <?php echo $_COOKIE['referrer'] ?>. I hope that helps someone, it took me forever to figure it out. There is a way to pull the information with javascript too something like "document.cookie.referrer or some such, but i'm no expert in javascript yet.

I wanted to track the entry page as well because I had another script assigning a variable of k_wcid (omniture) to any person who came into our site through google's PPC (Pay Per Click) Adwords campaign. This way we coudl track what site and keywords they came from with the referrer, and what page they landed on, which would also tell us if it was PPC or not.
