I can't check this out from work (for obvious reasons) but web server logs should record all the incoming requests and what hosts requested what files. Also, search engines like Google provide an API for programmers that could potentially be used to get data like "how many people are linked to this page". Or it could be like what was already mentioned, a middle-man thing, or deals using cookies or.. What did they call them? BrowserBugs or something? Little things that keep track of where your browse. There are lots of little tricks for recording incoming and outgoing requests and links. -TG > -----Original Message----- > From: Mag [mailto:genphp@xxxxxxxxx] > Sent: Sunday, October 10, 2004 7:18 PM > To: php php > Subject: PHP gurus...how are they doing this? > > > Hi, > Am totally puzzled as to how they are doing this. > The site is at > http://www.teeniesxxx.com/madtgp/submit.php (please > note its an adult site so you might not want to go > there, also note I am in NO way connected with that > site...AT ALL) > > once a person submits a site, they are doing 2 things > that totally puzzle me, > 1.showing the number of "outgoing links" > 2. counting the number of linked to pictures (eg: > href='blah.jpg') and movies (eg: href='blah,mpg') and > also giving the size of each movie (this i figured > out) and the resulation!! > > I would like to do the same thing for a cartoon site, > can anybody tell me where to begin or some sample > code? > > Thanks, > Mag > > ===== > ------ > - The faulty interface lies between the chair and the keyboard. > - Creativity is great, but plagiarism is faster! > - Smile, everyone loves a moron. :-) > > > > __________________________________ > Do you Yahoo!? > Y!
