 Fancy Counter Explanation

Argument
(* means required)

Possible Values

Meaning
link* your logon ID !
(example: iwi)
Uniquely identifies the UserID of your directory. If you are unsure about your UserID please send email to custcare@iwi.com.sg
width 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 or 9 The width of the resulting image in digits. Extra zeros will be added to the beginning. If the width is too short for the number to be displayed, it is lengthened so that all digits may be displayed. Default is 4.
style* any of the sample
styles shown below
Specifies the set of digits to use in constructing the final image, or specifes the use of the simple style 1. Should be all lower-case
ord yes or no(must
be lowercase).
If ord=yes, an ordinal number will be outputted 2. An ordinal number is a number like 345th, 10871st, 22nd, etc. The default is no
bgcolour RRGGBB or trans When using the simple style, specifies the background colour of the image, or if trans is used, specifies a transparent background. RRGGBB should be 3 2-digit hex values in one string, similar to the HTML command 

<BODY BGCOLOR="RRGGBB">

. This argument has no meaning when style does not equal simple. The default is 000000 (black).

fgcolour RRGGBB When using the simple style, specifies the foreground colour of the image. Same format as bgcolour. The default is FFFFFF (white).
inc 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 Determines how much to increment the counter. Using 0 means the counter will not increment. Using a value less than 0 will result in no increment. Using a value greater than 5 will result in an increment of 5. If you are calling from a computer specified in the [No-Increment-For] section of counter.cfg, this argument has no effect.

Note:

  • The simple style looks like this: This style requires less disk I/O and thus (should) execute more quickly.
  • To use ordinal numbers, you may use any of the available fonts in our web server. See table below this section.

Examples:

<img src="/cgi-public/counter.exe?link=userid&style=led">
