[ -- for posting in the wrong section, for posting a question which shows a marked lack of effort, and for posting a question that doesn't seem to have anything to do with Perl. You know better. ] Simple. When you grant the user access to the resource, log it. Depending on your definition of resource, the web server already does this for you. Care to be more specific?

Wouldn't you be better simply using something like awstats? Martin	[reply]
