Counters

Introduction
You can place an odometer style counter on one or more of your web pages. Although many vital statistics can be reviewed via the mkstats program in your Control Panel sometimes you may want to advertise the number of "hits" to a specific web page.

How to use
Add the following line of code to an HTML document to display a counter:

<img src="/cgi-bin/newcount?key&width=5&font=digital"> Substitute your userid for key above. If you would like to add a counter to more than one page, start with key "userid1" and increment by one each time you add a new counter to another page. (ie. userid1, userid2, etc.)

The newcount script resides in the server's cgi-bin directory and can be referenced from your HTML as if it were within your own account. The script does NOT reside in your cgi-local directory and is presinstalled for your convenience.

To change the number or digits displayed in the counter, adjust the value of the width attribute. To display an odometer style counter, merely substitute the word "odometer" for "digital". More information including other counter features is available.
