Counter Examples

The examples below show some basic tricks to customizing Count.cgi on The World. The following tags make very basic forms of the counter:

Counter (with a comma and no frame):
<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=A|df=login-name.dat|comma=T|ft=1">

Clock (Eastern US time, 12-hour, no frame):
<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=A|display=clock|timezone=GMT-0500|tformat=12|ft=1">

Date (with no frame):
<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=A|display=date|ft=1">

Frame Thickness

You can change the frame thickness with the "ft" parameter:

<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=B|df=login-name.dat|comma=T|ft=1">

<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=B|df=login-name.dat|comma=T|ft=4">

<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=B|df=login-name.dat|comma=T|ft=8">

Frame Color

You can change the frame color with "frgb":

<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=B|df=login-name.dat|comma=T|ft=4|frgb=FF0000">

<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=B|df=login-name.dat|comma=T|ft=4|frgb=FF9900">

<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=B|df=login-name.dat|comma=T|ft=4|frgb=FFFF00">

<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=B|df=login-name.dat|comma=T|ft=4|frgb=00FF00">

<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=B|df=login-name.dat|comma=T|ft=4|frgb=00FFFF">

<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=B|df=login-name.dat|comma=T|ft=4|frgb=0000FF">

<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=B|df=login-name.dat|comma=T|ft=4|frgb=FF00FF">

<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=B|df=login-name.dat|comma=T|ft=4|frgb=FF00FF">

<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=B|df=login-name.dat|comma=T|ft=4|frgb=FFFFFF">

<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=B|df=login-name.dat|comma=T|ft=4|frgb=999999">

<img src="/cgi-bin/Count.cgi?dd=B|df=login-name.dat|comma=T|ft=4|frgb=000000">

Digit Styles (Fonts)

By popular request, we've installed a lot of styles in addition to the five standard ones (A through E). To choose any one of these twenty-six, add a parameter like "dd=A" or "dd=B" or "dd=Z" to your counter tag. (Note: some styles do not include "AM", "PM", commas, etc., just digits.) Examples of all 26:

A


B


C


D


E


F "arial italic small"


G "simple star trek"


H "blue sky"


I "goudy"


J "style j"


K "fun factory"


L "scoreboard white medium"


M "bubble light blue"


N "57 chevy"


O "gold odometer"


P "gold"


Q "dog house"


R "acrophobia"


S "fatpt"


T "big wave"


U "army"


V "blue groovy"


W "pool ball"


X "banana"


Y "eerie"


Z "jittlov"
