Does anybody know if it's even possible to record the number of views a link to an outside page has by using just php and mysql?
I'm trying to make a page that displays tutorials and show the number of times a tutorial has been viewed. Each tutorial is a link to a different web address.
If anybody knows I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
Justin

Re: Record views on outside links
Never mind I just figured it out.
If anybody cares or most probably know.
Instead of directly linking I mad a page that basically updated in mysql and then did a
'<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="1;'; and referred the page to the desired link.
It may not be the best way but I got my views to record so I'm a happy camper.
