MySQL PHP Hit Counter
http://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorials/6/0.php
For this hit counter we are going to use MySQL, PHP and PHP's awesome built in support for sessions. I want to stress the avoidance of cookies for something like this because you are going to be forcing this upon each user's browser and the world of Microsoft users are shifting towards Internet Explorer 6 which has created some great headaches for webmasters that like to use cookies. With PHP's sessions the cookie is stored on the web server and not the user's computer which is a benefit because now the webmaster has control, not the user's finicky web browser.

Here we are going to design simple image based hit counter to keep track of visitor. We are going to keep record in a text file so we do need any kind of database. We are going to keep whole record in counter.txt file. In the same directory where you putting the PHP file for this counter, create a file 'counter.txt' and CHMOD it to 0777. Initially put 0 in it and save the file. As this counter is image based we are putting our Image in "imgs" folder.

The way this counter works is it creates a cookie on the user's computer with their IP and it updates the count according to the status of that cookie. If the cookie is present and the IP in the cookie is the same as the user's current IP then the script knows the user has already been there and it does nothing or if it is present, but has an IP different than the user's current IP or is not present the script knows that the user is either new or was there before, but the cookie has expired so it then updates the count.
