- Rev. 1.01 - 10 July 1996
-
- Book 'em Dan-O is nothing out of the ordinary, nothing extraordinary,
- but the data you can log is invaluable in tracking where people are
- coming from, what your heaviest usage hours are and *most importantly*
- what browser their using - all the better to develop your site with!
-
- This script can be run as a Server Side Include, completely transparent,
- or it can be used as a "Continue" button, logging and re-directing the
- user at the same time. In tracking where folks are coming from, it's
- most effectively used as a SSI from your home page. When used as a
- re-direct, you'll find that the "where" is always the page the button
- was on. Hey, whacha gonna do.. that's just the way life goes.
-
- Another option this script features is the ability to exclude yourself,
- given you have a machine name or static IP.
-
- If you're having problems getting the logging function to operate
- correctly under Unix, create an empty logfile, upload it and issue
- the command chmod 660 <filename> After changing the permission
- then issue the command chown nobody:<your user name> <filename>
- This will properly set the file to be written to by the system.
-
- Please feel free to use and post this script, all I ask is that proper
- credit be retained and noted in your script. (ie. Please keep it as
- a .zip file with this document intact)
-
- This script has run under Unix and NT without so much as a hiccup.
- Surprised me too! :-) Enjoy!
