Help with site hit counter

[Juan-Pierré]

Hi,

Can one write a basic hit counter only using HTML?

 

[gregmcc]

Nope. You will need to use some javascript too. Counters went out with Netscape though. Don't do it.

 

[koeksGHT]

Just use a plugin.

What about these:

simplehitcounter.com
flagcounter.com

 

[Sinbad]

damnit, I keep reading this as shite counter

 

[gregmcc]

Lol. Youve pooped 10 times this week. Congrats!

+1 Rather use Google Analytics or whatever.

Feels like 1999 . . . trying to remember where I last saw one...

Wooo. Blast from the past.

Who knows, maybe it's time to re-invent the hit counter!

remember to also put the current time on your website

google.com/analytics

Most accurate hit counter out there.

My favourite is the "currently active users" information. Makes me happy that I'm not the only one online. Unless I am.

Unless you're running AdBlock.

Yeah along with the scrolling marquee.

 

[Thor]

Out of curiosity op, why do you want this?

 

[koeksGHT]

Yeah along with the scrolling marquee.

I love my marquee

Don't forget the weather widget!

 

[Necropolis]

Smells like someone asking for their homework to be done for them.

Please don't make a website that has a hit counter on, Please.

 

[biometrics]

Yeah along with the scrolling marquee.

And blinking text.

And blinking text.

And some annoying midi track that plays when the site is loaded.
