It analyzes server logs, so it's invisible to users and doesn't require any code changes from you. -- regards, Kornel Lesiski ** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help **

There are a few different ways to do this: 1. Use a script that is already written (search the web) 2. Write your own counter The easiest one uses a text file to keep track of visitors But you can also have it update and use a MySql database It can output nothing to the users or a text count or even a live made image you can code wether or not you want a hit counter or a visitor counter (hit means inc 1 everytime the page is requested) (visitor means unique ip in a given timeframe - like 24hrs) 3. Like said by Kornel Lesinski use Webalizer If you want I can give you my counter script. --just let me know -- even if you decide not to use it, you can learn from it.
