Without more details on what do you intend to do with the affiliate code (format links, present code-dependent data blocks, ...), I can think of two relatively simple solutions: 1. single affiliate entry point URL, where the code is recorded, inserted into the session and then carried through the session only 2. use some async javascript magick (aka AJAX) to fetch the code only and format the links or modify the HTML, all client side. That would increase number of hits per page, but you can benefit from client side caching. Vlad -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
