Simple Counter

This PHP counter script is very easy to configure for your purposes.  
You need to move the counter.dat file to any directory of your choosing
and set the initial value to whatever you feel is most appropriate for
your purposes, and then change $counterfile to indicate the path to this
counter file.

That's all there is to it.

Currently the script does not block counts of hits from within the same site
as itself, so you get a count of every access to your page.  Future revisions
will include the ability to suppress counts under certain circumstances.
