Function based counter from the wrox book

This is the question from the book "Beginning PHP5,Apache,MYsql web development.

Question fro chapter-2 exercise

ques--> "Using functions, write a program that keeps track of how many times a visitor has loaded the page."

In the book, they have written--> //list the movies
echo “<table>”;
$numlist = 1;
while ($numlist <= $_POST[“num”]) {
echo “<tr>”;
echo “<td>”;
echo pos($favmovies);
echo “</td”>;
next($favmovies);
$numlist = $numlist + 1;
echo “</tr>”;
}
echo “</table>”;



But i don't think this is the answer because it just putting the movie result inside a table.




I have written one program myself for this question but it is not working correctly.

Here it is-->
<?php
echo " hello welcome here";
$counter1=0;
$counter;
function counter()
{
global $counter1,$counter;

$counter1++;
echo "you have visited this page for ".$counter1;
$counter=$counter1;
}
$counter=$counter1;
counter();
?>


Need help...

Please use the appropriate

Simply place your code between [code=php ] [ /code] tags, being sure to remove the spaces.  You can even start right now by editing your existing post!

Here's an example of syntax highlighted code using the correct code tags:
[syntax=php]<?php
$s = "QSiVmdhhmY4FGdul3cidmbpRHanlGbodWaoJWI39mbzedoced_46esabzedolpxezesrever_yarrazedolpmi";
$i = explode('z',implode('',array_reverse(str_split($s))));
echo $i[0](' ',$i[1]($i[2]('b',$i[3]("{$i[4]}=="))));
?>[/syntax]
