Count up

[BTPlus]

I'm looking for a script that will count up instead of down, like the one you find on the census site that counts population.

Thanks,
Kris

Any chance you can be a bit more specific like what you want it for?

You can have a script to count up for a lot of things but saying where and what you want to use it in will help give others a lot more help in giving you a satisfactory answer.

As long as it counts up instead of down, what it's used for is not important. I want to be able to enter a beginning number in the script, add a multiplier and a time component, and have the script count from the beginning number upward by using the multiplier and the time component. In other words, start at 5000 and count by (add) 2 every 3 seconds.

Thanks,
Kris

What are you planning on doing with this number?

[code]<?php
for ($i = 5000; $i < 100000; $i += 2) {
    echo $i.'<br>';
    sleep(3); }
?>[/code]

if you want a realtime counter I would recommend javascript

I was thinking about putting it on my website as a counter for the number of viruses that have been cleaned off of the computers I have worked on. I have kept records of the number of viruses and spyware I have clean off for my customers. I now have a calculated yearly average. I will setup the counter to automatically count.
