Create an empty text file called counterlog.txt and upload it to the same directory as the page you want to count hits for.
Change the permissions of the counterlog.txt file to 777.
Insert the following code into your web page:
<?php
// Open the file for reading
$fp = fopen("counterlog.txt", "r");
// Get the existing count
$count = fread($fp, 1024);
// Close the file
fclose($fp);
// Add 1 to the existing count
$count = $count + 1;
// Display the number of hits
// If you don't want to display it, comment out this line
echo "<p>" . $count . "</p>";
// Reopen the file and erase the contents
$fp = fopen("counterlog.txt", "w");
// Write the new count to the file
fwrite($fp, $count);
// Close the file
fclose($fp);
?>
