counting hits Can't Post
 
I need to setup a small routing system for my scripts and I need to know how to determine how many hits a url, cgi script, or page is reciving so I can do the redirection.

Thanks

No code posted but going to give you the idea. What you need to do is set up a .txt file on the server. Have this txt or dat file store just a number. Everytime the page is run add 1 to the value. Then have your routine grab the file and read the variable and then from there do what you want depending on the number. Let me know what you come up with. Later.

Another idea:
Everytime somebody visits your page, just append a period "." to the text file.
No need to read, increment, recreate the file and write back.
To find out how many visitors you had, just read the file to a string, and use length() function..

Hi
perlkid

To determine how many hits a url just use a SSI tag on the site to increment a file..
