Please find the code below.

 

<?php

if(is_set($_POST['submit'])
{
//please conect and select db
$query = mysql_query("insert into tabname values('valueofcnt','vouchercode')";
}
$sql = mysql_fetch_row(mysql_query("SELECT counter_val from tabname ORDER BY counter_val DESC LIMIT 1"));
?>
<form action="" method="post">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="<?=$sql[0]?>">
</form>

Lol - Wouldnt a 'update' not solve the problem better, than 3000 id's in a database?

A single row could be enought.

in a flat text file which i can then pull up the info and use as a voucher code.
