Hai,
This is a very simple counter which uses no database. You can use this counter to keep
track of the number of visitors to your site. This counter uses the simple and time-tested
method of updating a text file(say, acc.txt).
All you have to do is just copy the below code into your index.htm page in the exact
location you wish to display the counter. If you do not wish to display the number of visitors
just remove the following line from the program.
echo "<br>You are the $cnew Visitor to This site";
If you wish to view the number of visitors to different sections of your site just create more
text file (acc1.txt, acc2.txt...) and modify the corresponding file name in the program and
paste the code in the required pages.
You can download the latest version of this counter from
http://www.balakumar.8m.com/mycode/php/counter/balacounter.zip
*/

<!--COPY FROM THIS LINE TO THE 'END COPY' LINE INTO YOUR
'INDEX.HTM' FILE.
YOU CAN PLACE IT IN THE LOCATION YOU WANT THE VISITOR NUMBER
TO BE DISPLAYED
