// Daily Counter Script

// Tim Antley - www.bayoumx.com

// Stores the day of week and hit count in a file.
// If current day is same as file's day-stamp, counter is incremented by one.
// If day is different, counter resets to 1.

// Specify 'silent' in URL will suppress output after incrementing count.
// Place a question mark between script name; ie. daily_counter.php?silent

// There is no error checking for the file.

$counter_file = 'daily_counter.csv'; // can use your own filename here.

// Should not have to edit anything below this line.

$today = getdate(); // Array for today's information

$handle = @fopen($counter_file, "r"); // Read-only access

$data = @fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ','); // Reads file comma-separated values & places into array $data.

@fclose($handle);

$counter = $data[1];

if($data[0]==$today['mday']) // Check file's day-stamp against current day.
{
$counter++;
}
else
{
$counter=1;
}

$output = $today['mday'].', '.$counter; // Format output into comma-separated values for file.

$handle = @fopen($counter_file, "w");

@fwrite($handle, $output);

@fclose($handle);

if(!isset($_GET['silent'])) // Display output unless 'silent' appears in URL.
