VersaCounter

This is a very versatile counter. It can be used with Server Side Includes (SSI) or by a simple HTML image tag. The SSI method allows for more display options, such as plain text output, which can then be manipulated by the HTML markup of the web page. On the other hand, the image tag method can be used to put counters in HTML documents residing on remote web sites. You can even embed a VersaCounter in virtual HTML documents produced by other CGI scripts. With SSI operation the script outputs ordinary text/html to the server, which then parses it into the web page. For the text counter style this output is plain text, with an optional preset hyperlink around the hit count. For the graphical counter styles the script replaces the hit count with an HTML image tag pointing to the GIF image of the counter, saved as another file on the server. It can also block against consecutive reloads and optionally log visitor's info.
