web counter

[hilmaniac]

hi...
I need some help from you...I wanna make web counter on my website,can you help me....coz I have already done with my counter but it doesn't works good...help me plizz

Heres a way to do it in PHP, on every page you want to put this code:

<?php
include('counter.php');
?>

And then on counter.php:

<?php
function counter($file){
$fdata = fopen($file, 'w');
$data = file_get_contents($file);
$newData = $data+1;
fwrite($fdata, $newData);
fclose($fdata);
}
counter('counter.txt');
?>

You'll find a file that's automatically created called "counter.txt", thats where the number of hits you got are. Also it can be the same person refreshing there page rapidly. So I can create it so it only counts for one person once a day if you want. But tell me if you do.
You can also take a look at this witch isn't what you wanted. But:

You can do it with db too.

Like when press to link, call function. Then get old count and make $newcount = $oldcount+1;
Only you will need is to update the count:

$result = mysql_query("UPDATE counter SET count = '$newcount' WHERE id = '$id'");

if you have question can ask ^^

how to know how many visitors already visited in my site....

Note that it is not possible to determine how many visitors you have already had: any script will be able to record only subsequent visits.

Also,

Your question is unclear.
Please provide more information, and be as specific as possible.
