		<description>Good Work John! It inspired me a lot.

And Winston, You have read my mind!
Populate user defined trough URL is a good way to handle specific situations.
ItÂ´s not so hard to do, just iterate the parameters and using the superSetVar to add the variables...

Good Luck, soon i will try this too...

Best,

		<description>Any idea how to populate user defined variable through the url?  

For instance, http://some...site.com/?utm_campaign=This+one&#38;utm_userdefined=That+one

Could parse the url values and call the setVar function, just wondering if there's a more efficient way..

Cheers,
Winston</description>

		<description>Leonardo,

As it is, it doesn't account for setting the domain name or cookie path, and just uses the default of the full domain name.  This is something I should have covered in the post. You have a few options.  You can alter the super_set_var.js file to set the domain name and cookie path to what you are using.  For example:

var superSetVarTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-1-1");  // set up a tracker to call _setVar from
superSetVarTracker._setDomainName('domain.com');
superSetVarTracker._initData();  
superSetVarTracker._setVar(newVar);                   // call _setVar with the new value

An alternative is instead of using this fake UA number and separate tracker, just use whatever tracker is already defined. in which case instead of the above, you would just have something like 

pageTracker._setVar(newVar);

Doing that would automatically take into account what your domain was set to or what cookie path you were using.

Sorry for any confusion there.</description>

		<description>Reallly good solution John!
I used to to do this dirty stuff job only with filters, but, reading cookies was the next step...
But, this solution works with multiple-domains implementations? this cookie-reading function works when combined with setDomainName "none", or, even, cookiePath attribution?
Thanks!
Best,

		<description>I like this solution, but is had some disadvantages. I want to track someone's search behaviour with this solution. The main search function has 3 pulldown menu's, and I want to know which options are used most.

The pulldowns have 50, 50 and 20 options, that makes 50.000 combinations. And with the 500 rows max export function I can't report all of them. Right now I created 3 different profiles that track each pulldown separately, that works slightly better except from the fact that I can't combine that info easy.</description>
