Can you please help? Don't know the name of script!

[runningscared]

Hi,
I have been looking all day on your site for a script and I don’t know the name of it to save my life. I went to this web page called www.roadtechs.com and on the middle of the page where it says welcome to Roadtechs.com beneath that it has a scripts for example says: 130 new jobs posted so far today and they have been viewed 5748 times. Do you have this script on your site? Where can I download it? Can you please help me?

This is not a simple javascript code, or even a complex javascript code. Although I couldn't figure out what language they're using, but I know it's server side scripting. If anything I'd use MySQL and PHP.
Search Google for tutorials.

They are using AJAX and JavaScript, possibly some ASP.

Do you know what it's call? How can I find the name of it?

[Nile]

You can't find the name of it, you can make your own. Like I said it requires a database.

You can try to play on php session:

<?php
session_start(); 
if(isset($_SESSION['views']))
$_SESSION['views']+=1; // store session data
else
$_SESSION['views']=1;
?>

We've got a number of jobs which is viewed <?php echo $_SESSION['views']; ?> times.

@rangana:

That would only work for the current visitor and every time a new visitor went to the site would get the following (the first time):

We've got a number of jobs which is viewed 1 times.

@magicyte:
Why use any kind of Javascript, when all you need is the server-side language and a database (whether it be a flat file or an actual db server).

@runningscared:

As Nile stated, its not a matter of it being a script, but something that you would need to write the php script to be something like the following:

<?php
 include('db_connect.php'); //connect to db
 $jobs = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `jobs_table`");
 
echo 'We have <b>'.mysql_num_rows($jobs).'</b> Total Jobs';
?>

Hope this helps.

Ahh, someone understands me.

You missed rangana

Anyway, yes, you're right.

<?php
session_start(); 
if(isset($_SESSION['views']))
$_SESSION['views']+=1; // store session data
else
$_SESSION['views']=1;
?>

We've got a number of jobs which is viewed 
<?php if ($_SESSION['views']==1) echo $_SESSION['views'].' time'; else echo $_SESSION['views'].' times';?>
