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. http://www.mop.no/~alex/download/guestcounter-1.0.tar.gz -- Alexander Staubo http://www.mop.no/~alex/ "`This must be Thursday,' said Arthur to himself, sinking low over his beer, `I never could get the hang of Thursdays.'" --Douglas Adams, _The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy_
