Re: Implementing P3P policy for on-line surveys.

Is there some section of this URL that could be used to identify the  
client and therefore which privacy policy applies? You can use  
wildcards in your PRF to identify the relevant set of URLS
(for example: survey/StandardTemplate5.jsp?*TESTDmfDolv*)

If there is not currently something in the URL already that would  
identify the policy, you could add a field to the URL for that purpose,  
for example add at the end P3PID=0001

Also, you may be able to put your policy reference file at the  
well-known location and using the embedded link tag may not be  
necessary.
