...script expert?

I am trying to add a script to one of my sites (to count outgoing links). I downloaded a script from hotscripts.com, but I'm having trouble making sense of a couple things. I sure would appreciate it if I could pm someone my problem....

Might wanna mention which language its made in.

Might also consider choosing a better subject for your next post so people have a clue what it's about without having to click to read your post.

Well, I guess it's php?? Is that a language??? (I'm very new to anything but basic web design). :blink:

Here's the directions I'm not sure about...

1) Upload all Ccount files to the folder. Images (line.gif,reset.gif,delete.gif) must be transferred in BINARY mode, other files in ASCII mode

2) Make sure that the PHP scripts have permission to write to files clicks.txt and ids.txt

Just not sure how to go about doing these. With all the knowledge on the board, I figure someone out there knows what to do.

1) That's up to your FTP program, try using SecureFX you can download it for free on vandyke.com

2) That's not really a script question either. You are probably going to have to change the rights of the files, I usually just use "chmod" on the files to the appropriate value when necessary (might wanna Google on that) in the linux commando prompt.

chmod 777 FILENAME will do the trick but perhaps someone else has better solutions.

As I said your questions aren't really about being a script expert but yes PHP is a language (www.php.net).
