I assume you're talking about incrementing for everyone that accesses your site. For that you need a database to keep track of the number for all users. You'd be replicating an "Application Variable" that other languages have. If you're talking about incrementing on a per user basis, i.e. each time a specific user goes to the form, increment their number, then use sessions to keep a count. ---John W. Holmes...
