Redirecting a subcategory to an external site
It's generally bad practice, ie: considered black hat abuse, to attempt to set cookies for a different site from your own site.
How exactly are they expecting that cookie to ever be set in the first place? Sounds like a bizarre arrangement.
They'll probably have to set up a redirector from their site where you point your customers to davidsons.com?affiliate=dsc&page_to_show=mfg_cat_prod_xyz.html or whatever and then their own site will set the cookie and also redirect the visitor to the final landing page. Makes all the URLs you've already collected useless, and you'll have to rebuild them all again.
