I think I understand what you're saying, but I also think you misunderstand my situation (which I didn't make clear)...
I didn't create this site for the client...he's got an ad on a third party site and I was trying to track clicks from it. But they're got the link set up to open a new browser window when his ad image is clicked. I can't place code in the URL, either...
