How can I maintain a counter of how many times a link has been clicked?

I am working on the related links here:
http://www.eaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=28

and would like to add a column to the table and to my database tracking how many times each link has been clicked.

Then, I might choose to order the links by popularity instead of just the order in which they are entered in the database.

Sorry for the stupid question

Amy

Well I dont think its a stupid question. I have no idea what so ever

I guess we'll just have to wait and see what the gurus say

Has that 'Related Links' hack been released?
I'd be interested in that

(i can help you out with the link counter, also, if you havent figured it out yet)

No. I never documented it. Sorry

Hi.

I need this for my forum and would like to help.

Any advance?

I can program something next weekend but first I need to know if there's any advance with this?

This is what we need:

A new table with 2 fields:

url
visits

A .php file to add all the new links to a database and compare if it exists. If the link is allready in the database it will add a visit.
And then just redirect to the link.

And a template modification where we'll add the url of the .php file before the url.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
