HTML - How To Locate The Php Files Generating My Webpage

Hello. I have a small script developed for tracking sales. The script randomly generates a "transaction ID" by creating a random number when a user visits the thank you page.

It works great, however there is one problem: when a repeat user comes back, it generates a NEW transaction ID and logs a second "sale" when in fact its just a repeat visit.

How can I modify this script to remember the transaction ID for each user? I was thinking creating a cookie with the transaction ID would be the simplest way, however I'm not sure.

If you can help me decide which way is best, and then show me how to implement this I will be very greatful.

Basically I think I would need some sort of second variable, and a script that runs to check for a cookie. If cookie is present, replace "$random_number" with "transaction ID". else if no cookie is present, generate a new number with $random_number.

Heres the code:

Code:

<!------- Random Number Generator For Pixel ---------->
<?php
srand ((double) microtime( )*1000000);
$random_number = rand(0,100000);

echo "<script src='https://users.domain.com/sale_third/49.95/$random_number/OPTIONAL_INFORMATION'></script>

<noscript><IMG SRC='https://users.domain.com/track_sale/49.95/$random_number/OPTIONAL_INFORMATION'></noscript>";
 
?> 
<!------- End Random Number Generator For Pixel ---------->

Thanks in advance.

I'm a novice compared to the pros here and stuck on a couple issues. My website is uspsrealty.com
There is some "empty" space on my home page below the horizontal line. I want to remove the horizontal line and have the ability to use that empty space without throwing my borders/margins off. I would like to add about 3-4 sentences in that blank area. Can this be changed so I can add a few sentences? I know why this is happening, just don't know how to correct it.

Also want to change the copyright.jpg to 2010 from 2009. Might as well make up a few more jpgs with the years 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015

Willing to paypal you money for your help. Hoping one of you pros can do this in 30 min and willing to pay $25-30.

I have a webpage where the user enters there personal details . As they are fillign in details they click a link and another webpage is opened ( keeping the orginal open ) Where the do some other stuff on this new page and what is created is a javascript array of numbers I then want them to be able close this new window down and the javascript array data will be submitted with the rest of the personal information when the click a submit button on the first page .

If this makes sense how do i go about this?

Hi,

I am VERY new to web development and I am making a page for my friend. Here's what I am trying to do, I want to use an image that is about 500 pixels high for the background of my page, and then whenever the text grows past that 500 pixels I want to start tiling a different image. Right now i'm just using a table and I have the image as the background. But as expected this just tiles that image over and over again. Is there a way to have it tile a different image without splitting the text up into two tables?

Thanks!
Evan

Take a look at this image.
What I want to do is make the background black (which I know how to do), but to add in the black header plus the gray box--same width. What I'm trying to do is my forum is fixed width (in the center, not expanded on browser) and I want to do the same to a new non-forum site starting from scratch.

Okay that most probably didnt explain it very well but I am looking at putting a page together that will display a specific image at the top of the page dependant on where the visitor came from

So if they came to my site from a link from abc.com then they will see the ABC logo on our page however if they came from 123.net then they will see the same page but this time with the 123.net logo. If we cant find where they have came from or we dont have an image for that forwarder then it will show a default image

Anyone know if this can be done??

I've done a search on here, and have spent the last week or searching on google, I'm currently building a webpage up which integrates a forum, i want to put a feed on the home page of the site of the latest topics from the forum.

The feed address is: feed://guitarprojectuk.forumotion.com/feed/
and the actual website address is: http://www.guitarprojectuk.com

I've tried a few on google, and non seem to work, not sure wether its the feed or something i'm doing, so can somebody help me out?

Thanks,
Tom.

I'm trying to learn a little bit of html. I've got some basic knowledge now, but I can't figure out one thing. I want to make a button to go to another webpage. How do I add webpages to my website and access them through a button?

I would like to get data from a specific website (http://www.forex.se/rates.asp?sectionId=246).
More exactly, I want to get the values of the actual currencies and have them printed on my website.

So for example, I would like to have it like this on my webpage:
Code:

Currency      buy       -     sell
EUR        :    9,3749  -     9,6410
USD        :    5,8674  -     6,0745

Thanks in advice.

Hello,

I remember something like this, which is you have an xhtml form, you have textboxes, buttons etc, then the user clicks on the submit button triggers the sendform feature element and sends it to the email address specified. How do you do that in html? i remember it was like send form, then the email address etc etc and anything between the send form tag is where it will email anything in the text box fields. if you can send me an example that would be great.

Thanks

Hi, I'm new to the site and I'm just here to ask a question. I've been having trouble with my webpage trying to center everything. The problem is that at home my webpage is centered (When you zoom out everything stays centered) but as for school I zoom out and everything stays to the left and I'm pretty sure I left all the code the same from computer to computer. I don't think it is the resolution because I had changed my resolution to the same as at school. This is my coding (I'm an amateur at Html and don't know CSS):
