Guest Counter is a very simple product whose class instances can count the number of "guests" to a web site. It counts users using any kind of ID you want, although it makes most sense to use a user's IP address. Since HTTP is a stateless protocol, visitors cannot be precisely tracked, and so the counter continually times out registered IDs in order to approximate the current bulk of visitors. A simple mechanism for piecing together "graphical" counters using GIFs or whatever you want is also provided. Installation instructions: Unzip/tar in Zope root folder, then restart Zope. The new meta type "Guest Counter" should be now available for adding to folders. (I made a small blooper that meant that each count incurred a transaction in the Zope OFS. This has been fixed.) http://www.mop.no/~alex/download/guestcounter-1.1.tar.gz -- Alexander Staubo http://www.mop.no/~alex/ "QED?" said Russell. "It's Latin," said Morgan. "It means, 'So there you bastard'." --Robert Rankin, _Nostramadus Ate My Hamster_
