You could increment a Session variable, or a cookie when the page is loaded - this is the only way you cn do it server-side. They can only download it if the server serves it, so you can count server-side.

If you wanted to track clicks you would write a "client-side" cookie, which will then be available at a later date to the server. By client-side I just mean client written, since cookies are client items.

Cookies are one thing Server and client can share on any browser.
