how to keep track of a number of visits to a particular page in a website

Hello Ranchers,

I am new to post a question in here, but not new to Java Ranch. This is a very helpful site for people like me. Thanks to everyone responsible to keep this site up and running.

Here is my problem

I have user with multiple contracts. Depending on the contract, i need to display an offers page. So the offers page is contract specific. I have to keep track of the number of visits to offer page for that contract. I have to increment the count only once in a session.

How can I do that?

For the same page, if the session is idle for 15seconds on that page, I need to popup some information.

Could someone help me with these two issues.

Thank You in Advance

Welcome to becoming a registered user

1) I don't really follow this. You want to count the offer page visits across users, but only have each user count once?

2) For an idle time, you would have a JavaScript function that pops up after that time. 15 seconds is hardly anything though. Perhaps you want something longer?

Tammana ,

There is one javascript function that will popup after specific time. Name of that function is not currently top of my head. Check out for below URL

Thank You everyone for the reply. To track the number of visits to the page, I am storing the visit counter in a database.

I will be using a javascript to pop up the message when the user is on the page for more than 15 seconds. we are still doing the design for the project. so I have included these details in the design.

I might need your help during the development

Thanks
Jyothi
