Hello Group,
I have been playing with this idea for a month or so, but never really got
anywhere....
I want to make a remote counter image, the same as is found on
mycounter.com, where people have have an IMG SRC on there page which will
increment a SQL counter on my database.
so each time there page is loaded, it get the image from my site, but also
increments a hit counter on SQL..
I have really no idea how to do this, however I need to try and do this is
ASP, not CGI or anything like that, as I will never understand it :-)
what I have tryed so far is streaming the image which I can do, but I dont
know how to pass the varable from the IMG SRC to the server..
I know this is not the answer but I want to try and do something like this
how can I pass the for example ?ID=123 value to be grabbed in the page on my
site
<img border="0"
="http://www.mysite.com/counters/index.asp?id=123"> ----------- on remote
site
<============ WITH THIS CODE ON MY SITE======(index.asp)=======>
response.contenttype="image/gif"
response.binarywrite getBinaryFile(server.mappath("../images/car.jpg"))
' ////////// how can I grab the value of the ID on the remote IMG SRC
response.write querystring("id")
' /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
function getBinaryFile(fileSpec)
Dim adTypeBinary
adTypeBinary = 1
Dim oStream
set oStream = server.createobject("ADODB.Stream")
oStream.Open
oStream.Type = adTypeBinary
oStream.LoadFromFile fileSpec
getBinaryFile= oStream.read
set oStream=nothing
end function
If I have gone on totally the wrong track, any other ideas would be very
very welcome, as I need to get something running asap..
Kind Regards

Do it all server side first, then find out the value in your DB and place
that into a variable and use that to display the image.
This may help:-
intCount = 123 'Value from db after it has been incremented
For i = 1 to (6 - (Len(intCount)))
Response.Write ("<img src=""/images/ado/dg0.gif"">")
Next
For i = 1 to Len(intCount)
Response.Write ("<img src=""/images/ado/dg")
Response.Write Mid(intCount, i, 1)
Response.Write (".gif"">")
NEXT
Hope this helps

Not on a remote site, but just clientside code in an asp or html file on
your site
<============ WITH THIS CODE ON MY SITE======(index.asp)=======>
<%
if request.querystring("id")="123" then
'increment your counter in a database or txt-file
n = getTheNumber("file123")
n = n+1
storeTheNumber("file123",n)
end if
%>
response.contenttype="image/gif"
why, if it is jpeg, specify gif ?
response.binarywrite getBinaryFile(server.mappath("../images/car.jpg"))
There is a bit more to it, you have to fetch the file, addheader etc.
<>
or you could just do [not tested]:
response.contenttype="image/jpeg"
server.transfer "../images/car.jpg"
or [perhaps]
response.contenttype="image/jpeg" %>
<!--#include virtual="../images/car.jpg" -->
as long as this image has no "<%" in its binary stream,
in wich seldom case you will find that the image is not rendered as
expected. Your response.binarywrite solution is a safer but more coding
intensive solution.
