Are you trying to track people as they move through your site? If so then a server level solution like above is what you should be looking at.

If by chance you don't have CGI available to you or you can't use the Apache modules, you could right a script that cookies the user and logs the page. You could call this script by inserting a 1x1 shim image onto each page. It's not the best solution but it works 99% of the time.

A lot of the sites we work on believe it or not do not have any CGI access for any users for security reasons. In these situations, we have to graft the functionality on in manners such as this.
