This is version 1.0.0 of mxmCounter. It counts hits on a webpage.


**Description**

I needed a simple filesystem hit counter for zope, for my own site, but 
found the existing products wanting.

I didn't really want to be bothered with installing a statistics 
package, and setting it up with Apache etc.

Also, some of my customers have asked for the functionality on their 
sites. So I developed a new product that was more in line with what I 
wanted.


**Features**


*Fast, and doesn't grow the ZODB*

It is Ram based and only saved to disk for every n count.


*Works for all pages on the site*

You only need to install one instance of the product for all pages. An 
"infinite" amount of counters are automatically created.


*ip adress blocking*

You can block one, more or ranges of adresses that should be prevented 
from incrementing the counter.

So you can check out your hit-rate without increasing the count. :-)


*Cookie based blocking*

Sets a cookie so the counter will increment only once. Until the browser 
is restarted.


*Simple one page counter overview*

You can see all the hit counter on a single page. mening that you can 
keep them hidden for normal users.


It can be found at::
