Because I'm less than competent with ASP, I'm counting on you guys helping me with my counting problem. Any solution is very gratefully received.
I have a poetry-based website ( to get the flavour) that has a number of poems stored in an Access database and I want to find out which poems (say, the top 5) my readers are viewing the most. This means logging hits to a table in the db as and when they occur, depending on the poem ID they select. I can understand how to perform a db query & display the results, but I'm a total numbskull when it comes to writing to a db. So, what I need is to know how to write the ID to the table (i.e. the bit that comes after the ? in the URL). Please can anyone point me in the right direction or, even better chuck out some quick code? If I haven't explained this too cleverly, just shout.
