I have a page on a website with two downloadable files: an install, and
an update. I need to know which link (install or update) the user
clicks on so that two pages later, after reading a license agreement,
they are brought to the right file. I think what I basically need is
when they click on either the install or update link, pass in a
parameter/variable that can be used a few pages later that will allow
that page to know which file to give them.
It kind of looks like this:
a page with:
install link update link
\ /
license agreement page
|
download page
So, I want the download page to know what link was clicked, which in
turn would allow it know which file to serve. Hope this isn't to
convoluted!

Link to /license/?for=downloadab le or /license/?for=update
Then check the query string to generate the link at the bottom.
You /could/ do this with client side JavaScript, but since it is a pretty
essential part of the page, doing so isn't a good idea. This should be
handled server side, and the specifics depend on what your server supports.

Hi,
I would like to create a menu where the menu options were taken from
an XML file. The reason is that I would be able to update the xml file
(by simply adding new child nodes) after I uploaded new web pages.
Each page would run the same PHP script to create the menu. As the xml
file would supply every page, this would mean less time taken up when
adding new pages. Below is an example of the xml file content:

How can I detect when a link has been clicked but the new page is
still in the process of loading? The document.location.href property
still displays the current location (understandably) not the one
that's about to load.
I have a page that reloads every 30 seconds in order to access live
data. If a user clicks on a link just prior to the page reloading the
reload takes precedence over the link click and this is annoying for
the users....

Is it possible to set up an event handler or something else
so that when *any* link on the page is clicked it 'fires-up',
executes some JS and then continues to process the link
that was clicked?
(Without having JS or 'onClick' added to each & every link?)
I've looked everywhere but can't find out how,
or if it's even possible via Javascript...
Regards.

I have, as it might be, this in a frame:
<a href="mystuff.html">Click here</a>
When I click the link, it loads mystuff.html into the frame, whereas
what I want is to replace the whole window contents. How can I do this
while still using a link? What I want in effect is for clicking to do:
top.location.href = "mystuff.html"

Hi,
I want to know who all clicked a particular link (cgi-script) on any
website.
1. Link points to my own webserver
2. Link can be sent anyway. Either emailed or posted on a site which
needs login
If emailed, then the email page which shows the link also has the
users name. When clicked I want to obtain the name.
