invisible counter

[techker]

hey guys is it possible to make an invisible counter that only the admin could access it thru an admin panel?

yes, you can easly do that, also you could try some simple counter, such as [url=http://www.flash-counter.com]http://www.flash-counter.com[/url]

i have the counter but im worduring how to hide it and access it agiain?

Here what I use, this script counts universal users for me:
[code]<?php
require ("db.php");
$date = date('d, M, Y, h: m'); // get currnet date
$userip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; //get user ip

$c_ip = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["user_ip"]; //set cookies to remeber user ip
setcookie("user_ip", $REMOTE_ADDR, time()+86400); // remember cookie for seconds -1 day

if($c_ip != $userip) {
  mysql_query("INSERT INTO count
  (date,userip)
VALUES
  ('$date','$userip')"); // if remote address is not equal to cookied ip DO Count
  }
mysql_close($con);
?>[/code]

To view it I just need to log in to my secure page and display the result:

[code]<?php
require ("db.php");
$result = mysql_query("SELECT*FROM count WHERE number");
echo "<table border='1' bordercolor='#95B5C6'>
<tr>
<th>Date</th>
<th>User IP</th>
<th>Number</th>
</tr>";
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
  {
  echo "<tr><td>";
  echo $row['date'];
  echo "</td><td>";
  echo $row['userip'];
  echo "</td><td>";
  echo $row['number'];
  echo "</td></tr>";
  }
echo "</table>";
mysql_close($con);
?>[/code]

Yes.

[techker]

but how does it know witch page i want to count?

[Daniel0]

Save file one as eg counter.php

Then on the pages you want counted, put this: [code]include("counter.php");[/code]
