Hit Counter.

[tpounds]

I need help on inserting a hit counter on Dreamweaver. I need to know how many people have gone to my site.

Please help me with the script, or give me one. I don't know PHP D:

i don't know if you're gonna be using mysql or a file to count the users, but i'll post below. the mysql one is assuming you've already got a connection open.

<?php
// Hit counter stored to file

$loc = '/home/username/counter.txt';
$fp = fopen ($loc, 'w+');
$hits = fread ($fp, filesize($loc));
$hits++;
fwrite ($fp, $hits);
fclose ($fp);

echo 'Hits: ',$hits;

?>

<?php
// Hit counter stored to database

list($hits) = mysql_fetch_row(mysql_query('SELECT hits FROM counter');
$hits++;
mysql_query('UPDATE counter SET hits=\''.$hits.'\' LIMIT 1');

echo 'Hits: ',$hits;
?>

I Use a hit counter but also visitor history, which tells me more about each visit: stored to MySQL(Table 'LOG'), so that I can report on it.

This is the php file "sniffer.php" which I put into an incude folder.

You'll have to put in your own connection and database selection.

<!--Sniffer Script -->
<?php require_once ($_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"].'/Connections/freecrm.php'); ?>
<?php 
//connection
//database selection

      <?php
      $userloggedin=$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['MM_Username'];//take username from session if you are using it.
      $ip=$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];//get ip address
      $when = time();//get time page was hit
    $clientbrowser = getenv(HTTP_USER_AGENT);//get system and browser info
    $referer = getenv(HTTP_REFERER);// get refering page i.e. where it came from
        function getAddress()
        {
        $protocol = $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == 'on' ? 'https' : 'http';
        return $protocol.'://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
        }
    $clienturl=getAddress();//call address function above to get URL visited
    $clienthost=gethostbyaddr($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);//get hostname
    $clientlanguage=$_SERVER["HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE"];// get language
    ?>
<!--end sniffer script -->
<!--Start of sniffer insert -->
    <?php
    mysql_query("
    INSERT INTO LOG (IP, BROWSER, VISDATETIME, REFERAL, URL, LANGUAGE, HOST) VALUES('$ip', '$clientbrowser', '$when', '$referer', '$clienturl' ,'$clientlanguage', '$clienthost')
    ") or die(mysql_error()); //insert record into db
    ?>
<!--End of sniffer insert -->

When this is saved, just include this in every page you want to track. (I put it into a header include so its always on every page I put a header into.)

<?php include("sniffer.php");?>

You can then have a report page to echo this data however you want. It also tracks bots.
