Introduction
You can place an odometer style counter on one or more of your web pages to
advertise the number of "hits" to a specific web page.
How to Use
Add the following line of code to an HTML document to display a counter:
<img src="/cgi-bin/newcount?userID&width=5&font=digital">
The newcount script resides in
the server's cgi-bin directory and can be referenced from your HTML as if it
were within your own account. The script does NOT reside in your cgi-local
directory and is pre-installed for your convenience.
Substitute your userID for userID above. If you would
like to add a counter to more than one page, start with "userID1" and
increment by one each time you add a new counter to another page. (i.e. userID1,
userID2, etc.)
To change the number of digits displayed in the counter, adjust the value of the
width attribute.
To display an odometer style counter, change the value of font
from "digital" to "odometer".
To make the counter invisible to visitors, add &noshow
to the end of the tag. Then add a second copy of the same counter to a secret
page to see what the value of the counter is. Add &noinc
to the counter tag to prevent the counter from incrementing when you view it on
this second page. This is an easy way to track hits to a page without having to
look at your usage statistics in your Control Panel.
Resetting Your Hit Counter
An occassion may arise where you
want to reset your hit counter to zero. Likewise if, for some reason, your hit
counter loses its last known total, you may want to reset it to that total. Note
that you cannot reset your counter's totals by yourself. To reset those
totals, please contact your Affiliate and request that the "hits" in your counter be
set to a specific number.
