Hi, Since count is a property, you'll need to do something like this: <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('count', count+1)"> <dtml-call "manage_changeProperties(REQUEST)"> You would probably do this in your Count method... The "problem" with this is that you'll get a new transaction in the database for every hit. Some people have looked at this problem before (I think there is a counter product out there for which someone worked on a workaround).

I have a Z Class with a property count and a function GetCount. Here's GetCount: <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('count', Count(REMOTE_ADDR=REMOTE_ADDR, count=count, excludedIPlist=excludedIPlist))"> <!--#var count-->

It should increment count by one, since that is what Count does when I call it by itself (without the REQUEST.set). But instead I get count = 0. Now, GetCount is a method in a Z Class. When I call it in the class, I get count = 0. When I call it from an instance, it doesn't print anything. Here's how I'm calling it from a DTML page: <dtml-with WebSolveAccess> <dtml-call InitCounter> <dtml-call GetCount> </dtml-with>

I'd like to be able to print out count's value from this DTML page, but I can't. Is there a way I can print the value of count from the DTML page, and is there a way I can get count to increment like I want it to? Thanks for the help! Donner
