A "counter" is a feature that
displays the number of times your web page has been accessed. To add
one to one of your web pages, you need to include a line in the HTML
coding of your web page.
Personal Account Instructions
These are the instructions for personal
account customers who access their web page using a URL such as http://www.bestweb.net/~username.
To add a counter, put the line of code
shown below into your HTML coding on your web page where you would
like the counter to appear. At the end of this line, select a name
for the file your hits will be stored in by replacing the *
with the name you've chosen i.e.(filename.dat). It is strongly suggested
that you use your username for the name of the file. DO NOT use
the filename 'counter.dat' or 'count.dat' as it will produce erroneous
results.
<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?ft=1&pad=N&dd=C&ft=5|df=
*.dat">
For example, if your username was 'example'
and you used that as the name of the file to store your number of
hits in, it would look like:
<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?ft=1&pad=N&dd=C&ft=5|df=
example.dat">
There are additional settings available
for the counter such as making it hidden, having it not increment,
or changing the style of the counter graphics. Although BestWeb does
not offer support for these features, you can get information on how
to add them HERE.
Domain Account Instructions
These are the instructions for domain
account customers who access their web page using a URL such as http://www.yourbusiness.com.
To add a counter, put the line of code
shown below into your HTML coding on your web page where you would
like the counter to appear. At the end of this line, select a name
for the file your hits will be stored in by replacing the *
with the name you've chosen i.e.(filename.dat).
<img src="http://www.bestweb.net/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?ft=1&pad=N&dd=C&ft=5|df=
