Cookies module adaptation to get source website

[rogeriera]

Hi good morning,

 

My name is Roger and I'm working as a freelance front-end web developer creating some e-commerce websites.

 

In this particular case I would like to modify or create a custom module to be able to store in a cookie the referal website of the users and If there is a purchase, send this information inside the email. The referal website are suppliers of my main store.

 

Let me explain it with an example:

 

My store is: www.abrildissenys.com

 

A store with a backlink to my site: www.shop1.com

Another store with a backlink to my site: www.shop2.com

 

The backlinks these two websites have to my store are: www.abrildissenys.com?supplier=shop1, www.abrildissenys.com?supplier=shop2

 

I would like to store this two parameters inside a cookie, I don't know if I have to modify a JS or a TPL. I have found this javascript code to get the paramaters info but I'm not able to make it work.

 

Can somebody help me? 

function GetURLParameter(sParam)
{
    var sPageURL = window.location.search.substring(1);
    var sURLVariables = sPageURL.split('&');
    for (var i = 0; i < sURLVariables.length; i++)
    {
        var sParameterName = sURLVariables[i].split('=');
        if (sParameterName[0] == sParam)
        {
            return sParameterName[1];
        }
    }
}​

Thank You!

 

Roger
