RE: [PHP] Simple Counter

Glory & Supreme Power Thanks Jason.. I did look around in that PHP Variables sheet and I think if I were to create the counter program on my own.. it would come very useful. I'll try that once. I'm not sure if I'll be able to use the Apache logs as this is for my website on an Internet Server not owned by me. Is Webalizer available for free? I know that program but I don't know if its available or something. I tried many scripts from hotscripts.com .. but more or less they all had the problem of having a .php page to display your counter.. whereas mine is an HTML page and I'll have to use some sort of include or something. I don't know.. lot to look into. But somehow I didn't get much satisfaction by the many scripts I tried from hotscripts.com .. Thanks again..

If this is not an option take a look at http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP, they should have what you are looking for.
