CGI.HTTP_REFERER is the only option I know of.

If someone has come form a search engine, it 'should' contain their
search terms in the url query string.

Subject: Can this be done?


Hello all..

I'm bidding on a job and the client told me something that a competitor
does that seems pretty amazing.

He said that this competitor can dynamically build certain sections of a
homepage based on the search term that was used on the previous page of
a search engine site, no matter which one is used.

I know you can look at the CGI.HTTP_REFERER value for some search
engines, but does anyone know how to do this for all sites. Is there a
tool, CFC or UDF that could do this for me? Is there an easy way to
parse the info out?
