I'm having a slight proglem with a simple counter... I've made an external method that increments a Folder property and then returns it, which I use to maintain a hit-count on my main page. The problem is, that this doesn't work like with the simple web page/cgi-solution I had before. Then it would update the count once for each session where you visited the page, and using a cached version of the page the rest of the time. Now, it counts every time you look at the page, and gives an unrealistically high hit-count... Is there a simple way around this, or do I have to start tracking who has visited? (Maybe I could use a cookie for that...)
You can use DTML scripting to set HTTP Response headers - it sounds like you just need to add a snippet of DTML in with your call to the counter which sets appropriate caching headers for the client (note that "appropriate" varies by client -- you'll probably need a few different cache headers to ensure that most clients will understand one of them).
