Hit Counter Styles

[Matt]

Updated for cpanel 11 and x3:

To see a list of all of the available hit counter styles, just log into cPanel then go to the software section > cgi-center > counter > "see styles"

Designer Tip:

If your adjust the variables prior to creating the html code you can alter the look of the existing counter styles.
Sometimes changing the border to zero ( 0 ) may give a cleaner look when pasted on you web page.

Also after you create you table you can adjust your counters number so your counter does not start at 000001.

By the way, the link to the counter styles is actually broken. Anyway, I created a counter for one of my pages. But, I'm a bit confused though. Is the actual specific counter control stored somewhere in cPanel?? I mean, for future editing. I placed the counter on the page and pretty much set it to an average numberof visits I had gotten on the page (according to Webalizer - Seems like too many though). The only thing is that in Golive, it shows the link as a "broken link". I usually don't hava that problem. Do I need to download the cgi file to my local site in order to avoid getting the alert? Can I even do that?

The actaul data file for the counter is stored in a back-end database and is not obtainable for direct editing if that is what you mean.

I am not sure how well golive is going to deal with displaying the counter since the HTML for img src goes to <img src="/cgi-sys/Count.cgi?..." which basically no one is going to have on their local PC.

You might change the code to
<img src="http://yourdomain.com/cgi-sys/Count.cgi?.....

But I am not sure if that will break the counter or not.
