You can use the embedded code to record visitor contact information. The contact information is recorded against the visitor in the WhosOn database and will show against the visitor on subsequent visits.
The following fields can be specified:
var sWOName="";
var sWOCompany="";
var sWOEmail="";
var sWOTelephone="";
These are all optional.
Example uses:
Suppose you have a 'request information' form on your web site, where your visitors can fill in a form with their details. This form calls an ASP or PHP page that sends you an email or adds a record to a database. You could embed a version of the WhosOn tracking code on this script page so that the visitors contact info also gets added to WhosOn.
For example, the following ASP page is called after a user fills in a form. The form variables are retrieved via ASP. Then some ASP code writes the javascript lines for the WhosOn tracking code contact variables. The contact variable definitions are removed from the main WhosOn tracking code block since they are already being defined in the ASP block.
When the page executes, the form values are extracted via ASP. The WhosOn tracking code executes and the name, company, email and telephone values are sent to WhosOn.
