Rocky,
Sorry about the delay in getting back to you on this.  You were right.  I
was uploading the scripts in binary!  I started using Dreamweaver and found
out that if I didn't define the file extensions in one of my configuration
files, they would default to binary during the upload, instead of staying
ASCII.  I never realized that this could happen.  THANK YOU for the help!
I've been racking my brain for a long time on this (see subject again).
Now, I've gone back to lots of scripts that didn't work before and am able
to get them running flawlessly.  I'm a happy camper now!!!!
   I can not express how happy I am with the service that I've received from
YOA.  If you ever would like any kind of reference or testimonial, I would
be pleased to comment on your superior service.  "Above and beyond" would be
an understatement!  Also, I want to thank you for the calendar script.  It
was just what I was looking for!

Practically all organizations, whether commercial, educational or nonprofit, need solid numbers to make credible claims about the World Wide Web. Wusage fills that need.

How do I view my Visitor Stats?

The web page displayed will contain all the statistics for your domain for the previous week.

What does accesses refer to in Wusage reports?

An "access" is a single, successful request made by a web browser. Every successful request for any resource on the web server, whether for an image or a document or for another type of information, is regarded as an access.

What do the terms in Wusage refer to?

Below is a list of key references in wusage and their meaning.

• agents: An "agent," or user agent, is a web browser or other program used to access your web server. Most user agents are web browsers such as Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator, but a significant number are automated Internet-indexing programs, such as Altavista.
• bytes: A "byte" is a single character of information. In the reports generated by Wusage, the "bytes transferred" figure refers to the number of characters of information that were sent to the browser. This is helpful in determining how much of the web server's connection to the Internet (how much bandwidth) is currently in use. It is especially useful to site administrators who pay for bandwidth by the megabyte or gigabyte on a regular basis.
• trail: A "trail" is a unique path among the documents on the web server, followed by one or more visitors to the web server. Every visit to the web server follows a trail. Commonly followed trails represent useful information about the preferred routes that your visitors follow.
• visit: A "visit" consists of one or more accesses made by the same visitor, with no more than a certain time interval between accesses.

Where can I find more information about Wusage 7.0?

What are Referrer Logs?

Referrer logs are extra entries in your access-log file telling you what site your visitor came from. By default referrer logs are not included with most accounts but may be added for a small extra monthly fee. When you add referrer logs we also activate the agent logs for your domain which keeps track of the type of browsers being used to access your web site.
