Description

Hi SicJoy,

A couple of features that would make this module even more amazing:
1) The ability to export data to a spreadsheet. Right now the only way to keep the information about what links our users are clicking is to keep storing the info in our database. This means our database will become really large really fast. The ability to download this data will allow us to delete the info from our server at regular intervals.
2) Tracking domains that our users visit. For example if a lot of users are clicking on links to yahoo, we'd like to know.

Hi Lukas2000:

Great ideas!

I know the Table Export module will allow you to export table data as a csv file, which can be imported into Excel. I'm not sure how it handles paginated tables, however. It could be a real pain exporting large sets of data. Let me think about this one.

Tracking by domain shouldn't be to difficult. I'll add another tab to the stats page.

Thanks,

sicjoy

Hey Sicjoy!

Have you had a chance to look into this?

Hi Lucas:

Sorry, I haven't forgotten. I'm trying to fit it in soon.

Cheers,

sicjoy
