SUMMARY

Hit logging using the <LOGTARGET> tag in a channel definition is restricted to the same domain as the CDF.

MORE INFORMATION

The channel definition format (.CDF) includes a LOGTARGET feature, which allows a Web site provider to request the client browser to deliver logs of the client usage of the channel via an HTTP post or put. Even hits from the cache are logged.

Hits can be logged only for the domain that served the channel. This is to prevent one site from tracking the client's use of a site controlled by a different provider.
