PHPcount is a simple yet effective PHP text hit counter. It uses flat-text database so no SQL databases are necessary. It can count hits for multiple pages of your website or even websites on other servers. To prevent others taking advantage of your script a HTTP referer validation has been included as an option.
Extract that text_counter.zip file and copy the files counter.php, counter.txt and counter.gif to your webspace. You can copy these files to your homedir, but you can copy these files into a subdir (for example /counter/) as well. Get sure, that all these files are in the same folder.
This simple to use Hit Counter also includes a IP ban system. All unique IP's are stored in a MySQL database. From here you can ban any IP's you do not want to view your website just by including a simple code at the top of the page. Install file included! and also full detailed instructions. If you have any problems, please do contact me via the contact page.
