Post subject: How to add hit counter on link? Add to elertz Archived from groups: microsoft>public>frontpage>client (more info?)
On our intranet I have an article with a link to another page. I want to be
able to tell hom many times anyone clicked on that link to open the other
page. Is there a way to do it in FP?

If by "is there a way to do it in FP" you mean an inbuilt method (rather
than coding/programming your own) yes you can do this; the easiest, but
least reliable method (in terms of accuracy) is to add a FrontPage hit
counter to that page. I think it's under Insert > Web Components > Hit
Counter (or somewhere similar), but I don't use FP any longer, so can't
remember off-hand exactly how to do that.
However, on doing a Google I found this link
(http://www.phpjunkyard.com/php-click-counter.php) amongst others in the
Google results.
Note it requires PHP on your server (Windows or Linux/Unix), which would be
much more reliable and is written to do exactly what you want - a
click-counter (doubles as a file-download counter).
Sounds pretty much what you're after.

Why not just use the session logs accumulated by the host to determine this?

Thx for both replies!
Andrew - I've downloaded the click counter but am battling to get it to
work, might be because of the php.
Murray - yes I think that is probably the easiest way. I have ISS and my
boss says I should be able to get the logs from there, I just don't know how.
So I will try and figure out how to get them
Thx for your help!
