Cookie Summary
To display the Cookie Summary for a specified period of time, highlight Cookie Summary from the first list box, select the desired time period in the second list box and click on the Enter button. The Cookie Summary presents the Cookie, the Last Visit and number of Views and Visits (with the percentage of total Views and Visits) for the top ten Cookies (ranked by the number of visits) used by visitors to your web site, for the selected time period. To rank the Cookies by the number of views, click on the Rank by Views button. If None is displayed in place of a cookie, then no Cookie was logged for the corresponding visits and views. To view the next ten Cookies, click on the highlighted "Next 10" located at the end of the summary. To view the last ten Cookies, click on the highlighted "Last 10" located at the end of the summary. To view the previous ten Cookies, click on the highlighted "Previous 10" located at the end of the summary. To view the first ten Cookies, click on the highlighted "First 10" located at the end of the summary. To view all of the cookies, click on the highlighted number of total Cookies ("Cookies represented: 10 out of xxx", where xxx = Total Cookies). To generate a summary of all the visits by a specific Cookie, enter the Cookie into the text box in the filter tool at the bottom of the summary, select from the list boxes to create the request: "Show all cookies [that] [match] [cookie]" and click on the Enter button. To generate a summary that excludes specific Cookies, enter the Cookie into the text box in the filter tool at the bottom of the summary, select from the list boxes to create the request: "Show all cookies [that do not] [match] [cookie]" and click on the Enter button. Note that in the above examples users can also use the filter tool to include or exclude Cookies that either [end with], [start with] or [contain] the specified text entered in the text box. If you have already used the filter tool to apply a filter, you can use the filter tool again to add additional filters to the previous filter. For example, you could use the filter tool to display all cookies that start with 192 and then use the filter tool again to display all cookies that start with 208. A combined report would then be displayed that includes all cookies that start with 192 and all cookies that start with 208. To start over, simply go back to the original Cookie Summary with no filters. You can do this by selecting the Cookie Summary and time period in the top frame and clicking the Enter button or by clicking the Back button in your browser. To get more information about each specific cookie, click on the highlighted cookie. The script that you entered in Advanced Options will then be executed to lookup detailed information on the user based on the Cookie. This functionality can be used to link the cookie data with data in other databases, giving you the ability to lookup the identity of the user from their session cookie. NetTracker will append the cookie to the end of the URL specified in Advanced Options. If no script has been entered in Advanced Options, the Cookie will not be linked.
