Save text file with number format

[bluemonkey519]

Hi All, I am not quite sure if this is possible - but here goes. I have a webpage hit counter that uses PHP and saves the counter totals in .txt files. I have gotten the code to print out the comma (thousand separator) fine on the page, however, I would like to have that comma in the text file also. I display the counters on separate pages using <?php include("file.txt");?> and the counter shows up as "12345" when I'd like it to read the text as "12,345". Basically, I just want that comma written to the actual text file if possible so that when it's included on a web page, it displays the thousands separator. Any help would be great. Thank You!

 

Here is a portion of my code:

/* Turn error notices off */
error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);

/* Get page and log file names */
$page = input($_GET['page']) or die('ERROR: Missing page ID');
$logfile = 'logs/' . $page . '.txt';

/* Does the log exist? */
if (file_exists($logfile))
{
/* Get current count */
$count = intval(trim(file_get_contents($logfile))) or $count = 0;
$cname = 'tcount_unique_'.$page;

if ($count_unique==0 || !isset($_COOKIE[$cname]))
    {
	/* Increase the count by 1 */
	$count = $count + 1;
	$fp = @fopen($logfile,'w+') or die('ERROR: Can\'t write to the log file ('.$logfile.'), please make sure this file exists and is CHMOD to 666 (rw-rw-rw-)!');
	flock($fp, LOCK_EX);
	fputs($fp, $count);
	flock($fp, LOCK_UN);
	fclose($fp);

	/* Print the Cookie and P3P compact privacy policy */
	header('P3P: CP="NOI NID"');
	setcookie($cname, 1, time()+60*60*$unique_hours);
}

/* Is zero-padding enabled? */
    if ($min_digits > 0)
    {
    $count = sprintf('%0'.$min_digits.'s',$count);
    }

    /* Print out Javascript code and exit */
    echo "document.write('".number_format($count)."');";
    exit();
}
else
{
    die('ERROR: Invalid log file!');
}

What exactly is the problem?

What exactly is the problem?

 

I would like the thousands separator to be in the actual .txt file, so that if I display the counter on another page, it shows the comma. I cannot seem to get it to write the thousands separator the actual text file.
