[Zope] counting every document

[Jim Washington]

Hi, Marcus

Here's a possible answer:

You could put together a database-backed counter method with the DTML
Documents' absolute_url()s as a key.

The method would be optionally called from the DTML Documents as
<dtml-var doc_counter> or something like that.  It would be on the
acquisition path for your users.

What it would do:

1.  See if the key (absolute_url()) exists in the table, if not create a
new record.
2.  Increment the counter in the table.  You could be fancy about
defining what counts as a hit.
3.  Return the value associated with the key.

I have not actually done this, but it would be my first stab at it.
