Hit Counter for Form Submission

[keigh]

Hi Everyone - I am trying to figure out how to create a hit counter that shows how many people have signed up for something. Specifically, we are asking people to "sign a pledge" on our website and we want to show how many have signed (or hit submit) before they actually arrive at the submission page. I've figured out how to show hits on the destination page, but not how to put them on the entry page. Does this make sense to anyone out there?

Also - I am creating my website in Dreamweaver 8 and am very new to this so will appreciate any and all advice.

Thank you!

As I understand it you want to show the number of people that have signed a pledge to people that not yet did so. You can only do that when you store the number of people having signed on your webserver. And every time someone signs the pledge you have to read that number, increment it by one and store it again. You need a server side scripting language to do this (asp / php or the like).
