Counter Options Examples
The keywords in the query strings must be separated by & or | with
no spaces.
In the examples below, the data file definition uses dcc2.dat as the
example. The filename for your department will be different.

You should use at least one parameter in the query string (df=data_file
). A random counter is displayed because no data file was specified
in the tag.
This is the default digit style, color and frame thickness.
Frame Color and Thickness
|
<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?df=dcc2.dat&ft=0">
ft=0

<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?df=dcc2.dat|ft=6">
ft=6
|
|
<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?ft=10&df=dcc2.dat">
ft=10
|

<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?frgb=ffd700&df=dcc2.dat">
frgb=ffd700
The color is used as hex string. DO NOT
add # before the hex code. In the query string, if
you use a #, everything after it will be ignored.

<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?frgb=255;215;0&df=dcc2.dat">
or you use can use the RGB triplets: frgb=255;215;0

Changing Color

<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?df=dcc2.dat|srgb=00ff00|prgb=ff0000">
srgb=00ff00|prgb=ff0000
Change green color to red
|
<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?negate=T&DD=A|df=dcc2.dat">

Negates the image colors. Note that the digit color is negated
but the frame is not.

Setting Transparency
|
<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?df=dcc2.dat&ft=0|DD=E|tr=T|trgb=ffffff">
tr=T|trgb=ffffff
Any specific color in the digits can be made transparent on the
fly. The counter program does not care if your .gif images are
transparent, you must explicitly define which color to make transparent.

<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?DD=A|tr=T|trgb=000000&df=dcc2.dat">
tr=T|trgb=000000
Makes the black color of digit A transparent
These do the same thing:
<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?DD=A|tr=T|trgb=0;0;0&df=dcc2.dat">
<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?DD=A|tr=T|trgb=black&df=dcc2.dat">
|
<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?DD=A|tr=T|trgb=00ff00&df=dcc2.dat">
tr=T|trgb=00ff00
Makes the green color of digit A transparent
These do the same thing:
<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?DD=A|tr=T|trgb=0;255;0&df=dcc2.dat">
<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?DD=A|tr=T|trgb=green&df=dcc2.dat">
|
Hiding the Counter
<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?sh=0|df=dcc2.dat">
sh=0 hides the counter. The hit will be recorded but the counter
will not be displayed. This parameter displays a 1x1 transparent gif
to take the place of the digit images.
Monitoring Counter Hits
You can monitor the hits from another page by specifying the data file
and the keyword incr=F
<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?incr=F|df=page1.dat">
<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?incr=F|df=page2.dat">
<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?incr=F|df=page3.dat">
  
Number of Digits Displayed

<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?md=5|df=dcc2.dat">
MD=5
Displays 5 digits, adding padding zeros on left as necessary.
|
<img src="http://cgis.uaf.edu/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?pad=0|df=dcc2.dat">
