recset Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 I am trying to create a click counter for records in my database with the following code:[code]// *** Hits Counter ***$urlparam = "passit";$ckrs = "quotes"; //used for identificationif (!isset($HTTP_SERVER_VARS["QUERY_STRING"])) { $HitLink = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["PHP_SELF"] . "?" . $urlparam . "=";} else { $HitLink = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["PHP_SELF"] . "?" . $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["QUERY_STRING"] . "&" . $urlparam . "=";}if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS[$urlparam])) { $tableName = "wisdom_backup"; $fieldName = "ID"; $hitsfield = "Counter"; $urlfield = "PATH"; // Get the Hits number and update it. $rsCon = "vlot"; $IdSource = "select * from " . $tableName . " where " . $fieldName . " = " . $HTTP_GET_VARS[$urlparam] . ""; $rsId = mysql_query($IdSource, $$rsCon) or die(mysql_error()); $row_rsId = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsId); $hiturl = $row_rsId[$urlfield]; $next = $row_rsId[$hitsfield] + 1; $upd = "update " . $tableName . " set " . $hitsfield . " = " . $next . " where " . $fieldName . " = " . $HTTP_GET_VARS[$urlparam] . ""; $rsId = mysql_query($upd, $$rsCon) or die(mysql_error()); $rsId = null; header("Location: " . $hiturl);}[/code]And this is the code for the actual link:[code]<a href="<?php echo $HitLink . $row_quotes["ID"] ?>">Download</a>[/code]Now, it does everything that I want it to do (counts hits everytime it is clicked) however, in the URL path, it adds:[code]&passit=46[/code] the '46' refers to the record ID, now if a user keeps on clicking different record ID's, it will keep on adding the 'passit' url parameter, for example it would look like:[code]&passit=46&passit=22&passit=34&passit=5[/code]And so on and so on. Is there a way to clear the url parameters once the link has been clicked, but still store the data that its supposed to store?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corbin Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 I would explode row_quotes into an array and only pass the last var=val Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
