To use the server side include counter installed in your cgi-bin directory: 
1. Add the following to your home page html where the count should appear: 
<!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/counter.cgi"--> 
2. Change the filename extension to .shtml (ie. index.shtml ) 
3. Counter works. 

Note: the counter has the following options: 

-nd	won't display just count	<!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/counter.cgi-nd"-->
-ord	displays ordered count 1st2nd3rd..etc	<!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/counter.cgi-ord"-->

It will work for any page you want as long as the extension is .shtml . An example can be found in your user directory. You can type http://www.Yourname.com/count.shtml in your browser to try it out. 
You can download this file as an example to help you include SSI counters on your pages. 

This will call a program named counter.cgi in your /cgi-bin directory. It also uses a file called access_count also located in your /cgi-bin directory. 
The counter.cgi script is chmod 755 and the access_count file is chmod 664 .
