Visit Counter II

[Paul W Smith]

The code below works as a page counter for me, counting how many visits my
web site has per week (Sunday - Saturday). This works fine - it write the
date and the count to a text file e.g.

15/8/2008
1001

When the new week arrives the old information is just overwritten, however
what I would like to do is keep the old information but starting the new
week with two new lines appended to the top of the existing information so
maintaining the historical data.

or

I actually can write the code that appends the two new lines when the new
week starts. However I do not have sufficient knowledge to be able to write
the ASP required to either amend the top two lines of the textstream (for
when the total should be added).

Any help or references gratefully received.
