A "cookie" might do the trick. A cookie is data you can store in the
client browser through a simple line of CGI code then the next time that
browser comes to your site, you can examine the "cookie"

To learn more about cookies visit my HTML/CGI guide
http://www.cnw.com/~drclue/Formula_One.cgi/HTML/HTMML.html

there is a serach engine on my page. type in the key-word "cookie"
