Heres a really simple one I wrote in PHP.

<?php
$counter = "count_data.txt";

if (file_exists($counter)) {
    $fp = fopen($counter, "r+");
    flock($fp, 1);
    $count = fgets($fp, 4096);
    $count += 1; 
    fseek($fp,0);
    fputs($fp, $count);
    flock($fp, 3);
    fclose($fp);
} else {
    echo "Can't find file, check '$counter' exists and is chmod 777";
    die() ;
}

?>

<?php echo $count; ?> impressions on this page.

You need to create a file called count_data.txt in the same directory as this count.php

Hi WTD. Just found your post on php and as a complete newbie to web design I was wondering how to incorporate this into a webpage? I’ve tried creating a blank webpage and inputting the code in-between the body /body tags but all that happens when I open it is a page with "impressions on this page" at the top, any help would be appreciated.

Thanks for your time

Brian
