Newbi Stats Question

[LA2AUS]

All you guru’s are going to hate me for asking this but I have searched the forum and thread upon thread about stats. As an extreme newbie I’ve managed to get Abyss ver. 1X up and running on my old Pent. 700 Mhz. My web .html pages are made with Front Page 2000. I even figured out how to open up port 80 on the router and got the custom error pages to work but I just can’t seem to figure out the how to access the stat variables like x_abyss_stat_host_total

I have pinched a few bits and piece of code from some of the forum threads but one of them only displays “Total Hits:” but it appears no variable data is being passed?

The other piece of code I snatched from the forum displays this as if it is just text.
echo "Total hits : $X_ABYSS_STATS_SERVER_TOTAL";

Can someone please show me exactly what the html code is for displaying something like below (cause I don't understand the cgi, php, html codes stuff)
Total Hits: ####
Total Up Time: ####
Total Current Up Time: ####

If I only had an exact .htm example (that works) of a couple of these, I’m sure I could figure out how to get the other server display stats onto my Status Screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
LA2AUS

(frustrated in the outback!!!)

Your problem is because htm pages are processed as static content. If you want Abyss to process the directives, the pages should have a .shtml extension instead of .htm/.html
