Hello - I'm wondering if anyone has contemplated a method for tracking clicks through the shopping cart process. For example, it would be nice to know that 750 people viewed the category page, 300 looked at products, 200 put items in their cart, but only 10 checked out. If we knew things like this, we could focus our attention on which part of the shopping process might be discouraging customers.

Thanks in advance

We're actually working on something that will do pretty much just that. We're still ironing out the details but hope to have it available as an add on to the cart soon. It will monitor the traffic on your site and provide you infomration about your customers paths through your site.

Let us know if you'd like to be notified when its ready. Stay tuned.


All the best,

I did a simple click tracker using our MS SQL Server, copying code from one of our other programs. I defined a TrackIt.asp file with the actual SQL code in a Function, got our DBA to define a table for me in the data base system, put an <!--#include file="TrackIt.asp"--> in each program where I needed to call it, and then salted the code with TrackIt("whatever") calls.

<%
Function TrackIt (WhatHeDid)
ON ERROR RESUME NEXT
Dim sqlcmd, oConnLMR, WhoIsHe, Browser

Browser = Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_USER_AGENT")

WhoIsHe = Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR")

set oConnLMR = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

oConnLMR.open "Provider=sqloledb;Data Source=MSSQL-whatever;Initial Catalog=data-base-name;User Id=whatever;Password=whatever;"

sqlcmd = "INSERT INTO TableName (TimeStamp, UserIPAddy, Action) VALUES (GetDate(), '" & WhoIsHe & "', '" & Whathedid &"')"


oConnLMR.Execute sqlcmd
oConnLMR.Close
set oConnLMR = Nothing

End Function
