TurnPike Page Access Counter and Clock!

This is a CGI program to keep record of the raw hits of a web page. It generates a GIF image of the number of hits and returns to the browser as an in-line image. The program also has a run-time option not to show the digit images, this way the hits can be kept without displaying it. The hits can be be monitored without incrementing from a separate page as well. Almost all of the features are run-time options. The hits are not accurate. Someone can reload the page again and again to increase the hits. However, people like to see how many times someone visited their page. The program can be used to display time or date as well. The time or date of any place in the word can be displayed by specifying a timezone string for that location. The date can be formatted in any combination of MMDDYY (Month-Day-Year).

How to call the program?
You can refer to the program from web page like this:

<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?df=login.0" align=absmiddle>

The string between ? and " is called the QUERY_STRING. Make sure there are no newlines in the <img src= line and no space in the QUERY_STRING. In the above df=login.0, df means datafile and login is your TurnPike login name. The counter stores the hits in this file.

The counter program has lots of options, you can make it work and look the way you desire. In the query string, you can use the options described in the table below. The options can be separated by a | or a &. You can use either one or both. Here is an example: 
<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?ft=T&frgb=gold|df=login.0" align=absmiddle>

The options can be in any order and are not case sensitive.
