I'm not sure where the value of $counter is coming from, but it you're getting it from a SQL SELECT query, it would be more efficient to just use: UPDATE statistics SET VALUE(`counter` = `counter`+1) It's just one less query on the DB, which could make a difference if you're getting heavy traffic. > > > $counter++; > > > $SQL = "UPDATE statistics SET VALUE (`counter` = $counter)" > > > $res = mysql_query($SQL); > > > mysql_closedb($DB); -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
