Generally speaking: A) Find the start of the session - usually the first "hit" from a given IP. B) Find the end of the session for that IP - the last hit when the session time limit is up C) Get all the log entries between entry A and entry B for that IP D) Analyze the resulting Log entries as desired.

They also allow clickstream reports that allow you | to see how a user moved "thru" your site during a session. I don't see | that analog can do this type of thing, nor did I find that AWStats can | (awstats.sourceforge.net). Neither can an Active Server Page based | version. | | This type of information is critical to what we collect. Does someone at | least know the algorithms used to create these types of measures, so I | can recreate them as necessary? Any type of references to how different | web statistics algorithms are calculated would be really helpful, as I | don't have the ability to spend $2500 for the advanced FunnelWeb that | can do this, and I also need to add in some additional customizations | that they can't seem to do. | | Any help or references appreciated. | | Sincerely, | | Bryan Ax | Developer | AMC Cancer Research Center | | +------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | This is the analog-help mailing list.
