[jemerson]

I am in need for an Affiliate Program script that will give ID# to affiliaes upon registering via form. I have the form, I need a script.....PLEASE! Can someone direct me to a site that has one.......I am using MS FRONTPAGE 2002 and I am a cut, paste and configure girl........bare with me.

Well,if I understand you correctly, I think you are going to want to do this server side, so you don't end up with multiple ID's. (Javascript would have no way of knowing what ID's are already being used)

I was hoping you'd respond...you're always so helpful to me.
Server Side? (please don't get annoyed, I am getting there)...What can I do?

Does your server support PHP? You can check with this simple script:

Name test.php

<?PHP
echo ("I have PHP!");
?>

If it does, basically what you will do is create a counter script in PHP that will increment by one each time a new affiliate signs up, and since it is being done server side, you will be able to write to a file thus making sure no ID is given out twice...

How do you do that? I have a possible freelance job that wants a website built for an affiliate program and I am not sure how I would go about writing the code (in html/javascript) or what software to use to generate ID's and to store/tally them. My possible client was pretty vague about what he wanted, and I want to be sure I know what I need to do (and can do it) before I accept the job.

Any help would be nice,
Thank You.
