got this download counter here http://utilmind.com/cgi-bin/download.cgi?scripts/download/downloadcounter.zip you then change your links to: "www.mysite.com/cgi-bin/load?picture1.zip" then it makes a small txt file to record d/l's Then, your page will say this picture have been downloaded "64213" times and increment automatically everytime someone clicks on it. problem is, to show the number of downloads, it uses SSI like this: <!--#include virtual="www.mysite.com/cgi-bin/showload.cgi?picture1.zip" --> into threads...???

I think I get it, even though you didn't specifically ask a question... You want to SSI-include that on a UBB page. Technically it's possible (with .htaccess), but it would require parsing EVERY single UBB page. Servers don't like this. It tends to make them keel over and die. I know; I've been in that situation several times in my early days.  You could try modifying your script to use GD and display the counter as an image (then call it into UBB with an [img] tag, as LK does here), it'd be much server-friendlier...

Man I'd so love to see how LK does that with GD.

It's not that hard... I made a sig image a while ago for another board I visit that uses GD. Just a little script that incremements the number of pageviews it's got, shows the number and exits. It's actually pretty easy when you get used to it. Heavy studying of the readme is suggested first though.

I can give you the code of my nums.php script, very easy. <?php
Header("Content-type: image/png");
$s = $HTTP_GET_VARS['s'];
$file = file("stats.cgi");
if (ereg(",", $s)) {
$splitted = split(",", $s);
} else {
$splitted = Array("$s");
}
foreach ($splitted as $asplit) {
$num = 0;
foreach ($file as $line) {
if (preg_match("/q~$asplit~ => (d+),/", $line, $test)) { $num = $test[1]; }
}
$result = $result + $num;
}
if (ereg("^([0-9]{2})([0-9]{3})([0-9]{3})$", $result, $test)) {
$result = "$test[1],$test[2],$test[3]";
$im = ImageCreate(69,11);
} else if (ereg("^([0-9])([0-9]{3})([0-9]{3})$", $result, $test)) {
$result = "$test[1],$test[2],$test[3]";
$im = ImageCreate(62,11);
} else if (ereg("^([0-9]{3})([0-9]{3})$", $result, $test)) {
$result = "$test[1],$test[2]";
$im = ImageCreate(48,11);
} else if (ereg("^([0-9]{2})([0-9]{3})$", $result, $test)) {
$result = "$test[1],$test[2]";
$im = ImageCreate(41,11);
} else if (ereg("^([0-9])([0-9]{3})$", $result, $test)) {
$result = "$test[1],$test[2]";
$im = ImageCreate(34,11);
} else if (ereg("^[0-9]{3}$", $result)) {
$im = ImageCreate(20,11);
} else if (ereg("^[0-9]{2}$", $result)) {
$im = ImageCreate(13,11);
} else if (ereg("^[0-9]$", $result)) {
$im = ImageCreate(6,11);
} else {
$im = ImageCreate(20,11);
$result = "N/A";
}
$white = ImageColorAllocate($im,255,255,255);
$black = ImageColorAllocate($im,0,0,0);
ImageColorTransparent($im, $white);
//ImageTTFText($im, 8, 0, 0, 9, $black, "/.../ud/verdanab.ttf", "$result");
ImageString($im, 3, 0, 0, "$result", $black);
ImagePNG($im);
ImageDestroy($im);
print "$result";
?> The reason I'm not using ImageTTFText is because this server doesn't support it.
