I don't know how to do it in CGI, but in Active Server Pages you can use the PageCounter component.
Create a file called counter.asp, in a subdirectory ASPScript, with the following code:
<%
'Instantiate the PageCounter object in IIS5
' In IIS4 you may have to use IISSample instead of MSWC
Set MyPageCounter = Server.CreateObject("MSWC.PageCounter")
'Increment the counter for this page.
MyPageCounter.PageHit
thisPage = Request.ServerVariables("URL")
If Server.HTMLEncode(Request.QueryString("clear")) = "321" Then
'Reset the counter for this page, and reload
MyPageCounter.Reset(thisPage)
Response.Redirect(thisPage)
End If
Response.Write("<DIV class=PageCount>This Page has
been viewed " & MyPageCounter.Hits & " times</div>")
%>
Then, add the following to your AM Article template:
<!--#Include virtual="ASPScript/counter.asp"-->
The cool thing about this is that you can reset any article's counter to zero by adding
?clear=321
to the end of any article URL.
Of course, this assumes that you are using ASP pages and that your article's pages all end in .asp .
