Depending on how you set up your dealers, a simple URL variable is all you need.... www.whatever.com/index.cfm?id=1234 Your dealers can set this up in their link to the main website. Do all of your checking of who the dealer is by the ID url variable.. You could even set a session variable based on a referer url as well. There are many ways to do it and without specifically knowing how your dealers are getting to the site, there is no set way of doing things...
