okay ,
heres the situation in Auto Manger 2.25
I have a simple text counter that uses SSI. I want this counter on each page generated by the publish_listings.
Only problem is the output file has to be .shtml for the counter to work. Is it possible to change the output to .shtml of the generated pages....OR is there a simple textual counter that i can use to track each page...including newly generated pages....that requires no undue changes

Hi Joey,
Just out of curiosity...
Is the problem that you can't use the counter because you're unable to use SSI calls in standard .html pages (meaning your server only allows you to call SSIs into pages with a .shtml extension)?

If you have the ability to have and edit .htaccess files, you can add the following entry to the file.
AddHandler server-parsed .html
This will enable ssi on .html pages.
I use a pretty nice counter. Check it out at http://www.vettetrader.net . Click on any ad and scroll to the bottom of it. You'll see the counter there.
I can get it to you if you can actually set the .htaccess file to accept ssi.
Thanks

Hello Scott,
It's me Joey from http://www.Used-CarLots.com
Actually I noticed your counter at vettetrader.com which started me looking for a way to do it..and to do it for every new page added...
I really would appreciate the counter ( I suppose you can also make it invisible by making the text the same as the background?)...as a trade if you ever need anything (help setting up forum, newsletter signup script (that actually works and manages your mailing list)...etc.. let me know...Thanks in advance.

Hey, my friend!
You can get the multicount script from http://www.mattriffle.com/software/
It's really nice because it'll give you a readout like this:
Page Views: 146 visits (7 today, 12 this week, 32 this month, 146 this year)
I had it only displaying the total visits previously, but since I'm getting some traffic now, I've set it to it's default (which is what you see above).
And yes, you can set the text the same color as the background 
As for including it in your pages, it's really easy. Once you've added your .htaccess file and entries, add this code to your page:
<!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/mcount.cgi"-->
Of course change the path to the counter to point to your script location.
Thanks for the offer of help! It's great to know people out there like to help people like I do . Let me know if you need help setting up this counter (or anything else).
