Using Page Counters by Keith Oustalet
Adding Counters to Pages
Now that you understand the basics of defining your own Tags and Page Layout (or Templates), we'll show you how to add counters to your pages using the Counter Application Component. The result will be a dynamic page.
Now let's modify our SampleLayout page to include the counter. Here is how it should look:
Example:
| Sample.hei with Page Counter |
|---|
<HTML> <HEAD> <include name="mylayout.hei"/> <include name="cocounter.hei"/> </HEAD> <BODY> Anything else you want to do with this Web Page should be placed here. <P> This page has been called <Counter name="SamplePage" /> times. </P> </BODY> |
You can place the <Counter name="SamplePage"> statement anywhere you like on the page, so long as it appears between the <BODY> and </BODY> Tags.
In fact nothing else happens when you click a counter component on a page using RADpage. Each component is in fact a user-defined tag that can be edited using RADpage.
You might want to look at the source code of the counter library. Calling the <Counter> Tag retrieves the appropriate counter (in this case "SamplePage") from the webcount SQL Table and automatically increments it.
