| We provide a counter which
can be used to tract and display the number of accesses to individual pages within the
website. This particular counter is extremely flexible and very configurable.
It will display page counts as well as count downs or dates. The digits displayed by
the counter come in a variety of forms and are readily available for download from a
number of sites. To view
sample digit styles we have in stock GO HERE.
One of the best sites for downloading
digits (most of our collection is from this site) is: http://www.digitmania.holowww.com
CALLING THE COUNTER
The following is an
example of the html code to call a counter:
<img
src="/cgi-bin/count.exe?dd=d|ft=0|df=coolstuff.dat">
In this example we are only using a few of
the optional parameters that can be used with this counter.
/cgi-bin/ assumes that the cgi-bin is a
subdirectory of the folder in which the page calling the counter is located. If the
page is within a subdirectory of the domain's root directory you will need to use
../cgi-bin/ instead.
Count.exe is the file being called in the cgi-bin which handles the functions.
dd = is the name of the digits directory (required).
ft = frame thickness (is not a required element).
df = is the name you assign to the data file which will keep the count for that page
(required).
ALL COUNTER OPTIONS
There are numerous other optional
parameters associated with this counter.
