I'll try to explain what Mint is trying to do, but again let me throw out the "I'm not a programmer" disclaimer.
What I'm installing is called the Bird Feeder Pepper, what it does is puts an extra pane in my stats package that counts how many people subscribe to my feed. In order to do that it needs to have some sort of notification that someone has accessed my feed (or, you know, something like that). So to do that the instructions include calling an external file which then runs some PHP that looks to be basically making a count and recording some stuff in my Mint database. There's also another step that includes adding some stuff to the <link> element that will let you track clicks within individual article feeds. But I'll cross that bridge when I get there. That's not as important to me as just knowing the overall subscription count. Thanks again for all your help! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/habari-users -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
