Hi,

Could anyone point me to a good free text counter?

I'd like it to be able to host it myself, so I'm just looking for a script that I could customize for my site's look, preferably a text counter that only counts unique IPs without any advertising on it.

I would write one myself, but I don't know where to begin for web counters...

Thanks,Sure, this is easy to do! Infact, you could even write a simple counter yourself. However, there are several server-side languages out there, so knowing what your server supports will be easier for us to guide you! :)

ASP, PHP, Perl, JAP as some server-side scripting languages. Your server needs to supposrt CGI processig for atleast one of these languages for you to put up a server.My server supports both PHP and Perl. I do most of my website coding in PHP, but I know both languages fairly decently.

I think I would prefer something in PHP though.

Any pointers?Hi,

sorry for taking so long to reply! My internet was down.

Its quite easy to program your own conter, but i`m not to ofimiliar with PHP. I only know ASP, so let me show you a few places where you can find some nice free PHP counters :)

... if you need any help installign them, there is a sub forums in this forum just for PHP. I am sure you will be able to find more help there if you need it ...I've moved this to the PHP sub-forum so hopefully one of the gurus in here can give you some additional guidance in doing this in PHP
