Hello, i use the following code in all my pages to create or update a counter for each run of each script.
Because the scripts are gettign bigger and bigger at the time i need to create a seperate file to put this code in and then call within my each script to do its counter update job.
#======== Insert or Update pagecounter appropriately, then display it
+==========
my ($pagename) = ($0 =~ m{([^/\\]+?)(?:\.[^/\\.]+)?$});
eval { # Just ignore errors if the record already exists
$db->do('INSERT INTO counters (pagename, pagecounter) VALUES (?, 0)
+',
undef, $pagename);
};
$db->do('UPDATE counters SET pagecounter = pagecounter + 1 WHERE pagen
+ame = ?',
undef, $pagename) unless( $host eq 'Admin' );
my ($counter) = $db->selectrow_array('SELECT pagecounter FROM counters
+ WHERE pagename = ?',
undef, $pagename);
So, i have placed the above code in a file called counter.pl and i call it within each perl script as
include ("counter.pl");
My problem is i dont know how to call 'counter.pl' giving it the name of the refferer script tha called it.
Can you help plz?
