A code only first time visitors can see?

    Is there a code only first time visitors can see? It would really help my website if first time visitors knew exactly what it was about. Also, my website is a blog hosted on blogspot, so it uses XML coding which means the code/script has to be XML friendly.

    Can anyone help me?

    Is there a reason that it should be targeted to only first time users? Generally if it's worth saying to anyone you should leave it accessible to everyone somewhere on the site.

    If you are looking to track visits, perhaps read up on using cookies to store a variable containing data on their last visit date. You could then test this on the page load to see whether you should serve up the welcome content dynamically.

    This would require some php being added to your theme. What level of access to theme files do you get with Blogger?
    Bear in mind that this will not work if they delete cookies...

    Hope we can help!
