Hey folkz, need a point in the right direction here plz.
I have a new feature called What's New i'm implementing. Whenever i add a new feature to my site, i am goign to write a little blurb about it.
On my main page, i have a javascript that will appear if there are any WhatsNew to show. However, i only want it to appear at least until the person has visited my WhatsNew page. Then, it does not need to appear again until i add another feature.
So, i have a Publish date field in my DB for weach feature and i was going to do this.
On the main page, check to see if Cookie exists, if not, display JS. When user goes to WhatsNew page, i update the cookie with the date.
My problem is that if my last feature was published say 12/02/2005 and todays date is 12/05/2005, the JS will appear. So my theory is flawed. I need to JS to only appear when the user has visited that page, since the last feature was added.
My client do NOT log into the site
Help !
