Setup HIT COUNTER to not count reloads and duplicates?

[Mike]

Many of the Hit Counters you can get online have an opton where they don't count duplicate hits from
the same computer. Is there any way to set this in FP? Currently if I go to my site and click
refresh 5 times, my hit number goes up 5 times. I have other places that don't support FPSE so I
have a web hit counter and they don't do this. I'd rather have it NOT do this so does that mean I
need to get a different coutner than the FP included one?

Is this something that is fixed (or an option) in 2003 by chance?

You will need to get a different counter, as for FP2003, I don't know.

Well feel free to pass that along as a suggestion to make the Hit Counter more useful.

Actual a hit counter is really provides no useful info, it best to have a
host that provide access to the server stats for your web site, where you
can see where visitor are coming from, how long they stayed, what pages they
viewed, what browser and OS they were using, etc.
