users online

[afe]

Does anyone know where I could get a users online script, where it shows the number of visitors surfing the site.

Thanks!!

I could make one if you would like.
But I would need to know if you wanna use files, or databases.

Which one is better? I'll use the one that's better.

Thanks a lot!

A database would be waaaay better and easier (or so I think), and you could branch off into other features using it.

Ohh cool, do you know where I could get one?

Thanks!

Why not build it yourself? It would help you become a better coder.

It does take some time to get it right, but be patient. You'll be happy and better off when you finally get it.

Ok, I'm already stuck, lol. It says "First we need a way to store the visitor information. The most fast way is a simple MySQL table, so lets create a new table." So where do I create a table? PHPMyAdmin? I can't seem to see anything that says "Create a new table".

Create a DB in phpmyadmin and then create the table in it. Use the query tab in phpmyadmin.
