PHP Links :(

[gawoolfe]

Hello all 🙂

I have been trying for months to figure out how PHP handles links.

I know I can use href/html links, but I want to record that the link has been hit. (I'm trying to log file downloads - simply how many times someone downloads a file, or visits a link)

I have been using header() to open a new page, but this is not as reliable as I would like.

Can PHP (and only PHP - ie: no HTML), following a link, from say within a function that has been called?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

May be this is what you neeed -- Web server logfile analysis

If you wish to use PHP to handle it, you need something like id to represent each article or each section, any any link that user click on your site.
