Note Submitter: baced2001 at freenet dot de ---- if you'd like to create an ip- or cookie-based counter, you've to check the time passed since his last visit. the first way is to save the current date&time and add the timeout while checking: <?php function isTimedOut($tsLast, $intTimeoutSecs) { $tsTimeout = strtotime("+ " . $intTimeoutSecs . " seconds", $tsLast); return ($tsTimeout < mktime()); } function TimestampToDBDate($ts) { return date("Y-m-d H:i:s", $ts); } // $last_visit <-- DB-Entry if (isTimedOut($lastvisit, 60*60*24)) { // count !!! $last_visit = TimestampToDBDate(mktime()); // $last_visit --> DB-Entry } ?> and the second way is to add the timeout while saving the current time&date: <?php function CreateTimeoutTimestamp($intTimeoutSecs) { return strtotime("+ " . $intTimeoutSecs . " seconds", mktime()); } function TimestampToDBDate($ts) { return date("Y-m-d H:i:s", $ts); } // $next_count_date <-- DB-Entry if (mktime() > $next_count_date) { // count !!! $next_count_date = TimestampToDBDate(CreateTimeoutTimestamp(60*60*24)); // $next_count_date --> DB-Entry } ?>
