So in order not to deprive you of the learning process, I will give you some hints:<br />
<br />
1. The counter program must be server based since you need somewhere to store a file with the number that gets incremented.<br />
2. The program reads this file (creates it and sets the value to 0 if the file does not exist), increments the value and writes the value back to the file and <br />
3 returns some text (SSI or ASP) or an image (gif) or a redirect to an image representing the value of the counter.<br />

Have a look at <a href="http://www.TheCounter.com" rel="ugc">www.TheCounter.com</a>. This one offers lots of statistics &amp;&nbsp;requires you to put some javascript into your page... might not be exactly what you want :)<br />
<br />
The old way is to have an image tag with &quot;src&quot; parameter being a cgi-binary (there are also plain text counters). This means contacting your sysadmin and asking questions. You might try to link some off-site counters as well... just examine the html code of pages &nbsp;which have counters.<br />

I want to know what the code for constructing a page counter is. &nbsp;I think it might be either in vbscript or asp(and maybe not). &nbsp;It is for a course project and I have to write the code myself from scratch. &nbsp;Thank you.

HTML Counter

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the main markup language for creating web pages and other information to be displayed in a web browser, providing both the structure and content for what is sent from a web server through the use of tags. The current implementation of the HTML specification is HTML5.
