webalizer visitor counter to homepage

[peter12]

Hello, is it possible to put a counter box, like this->http://www.tinycounter.com/counterstyles.php to my home page of my site using webalizer statistics??


my site is an offline site to my univercity web serv (no internet access) and i want to inform visitor how manu visitor hits my site has daily.

Im using XAMPP 1.7.2 to a windows 2003 server box.

The same thing i have done to my online site with a free hit counter my ISP gave to me, but how i can do this to my offline xampp site? webalizer is great but, only the admin can read the statistics after login on with his username password!

Its important to discriminate two things - web analytics from hit counters. Sometimes they can be one item that does both, but usually not.

Webalizer is an analytics tool, when you use it, it has to churn through your logfiles -- eats a lot of processor. Hit counters, do just that - you land on the page, bingo, count ++1.

There are a variety of hit-counters script, and of course you can write one in PHP easily.

Good Luck.
