My code is a website counter ( counter.php ). It works perfectly when run

  • 0

My code is a website counter (counter.php). It works perfectly when run directly, meaning
each time you refresh the page the counter increments starting from 5754; however, when the counter.php is included in another page containing other jQuery plugins, it stops working. The counter is static then; it will show 5754 all the time.

Please help me and clarify where I am going wrong.

This section is where the incrementation (counting of the visitors) takes place:

<?php
session_start();  
if(isset($_SESSION['executed']))
$_SESSION['executed'] = $_SESSION['executed']+ 1;
else
$_SESSION['executed'] = 5754;
?>

The page itself, which is self explanatory: 

<head> 
<script src="counter/js/jquery-1.7.1.j"> type="text/javascript"></script>

Where the counter leaves:

<div class="counter-wrap"> 

    <div class="counter-number">
        &nbsp;
    </div>
</div>

<div>

An inline CSS:

<style>

.counter-wrap {
    height:18px;
    overflow:hidden;   
}

.counter-number {
    height:198px;
    width:12px;
    position:relative;
    background-image:url(http://developer.mindtouch.com/@api/deki/files/4548/=counter_ticker_bg.gif);  
    float:left;
}

</style>

And now the jQuery code:

<script type="text/javascript">
$(".counter-number").each( function(i) {
    $(this).attr('id','num'+i);    
});

function loadinput() {
    var newval = $("#numgo").val();
    loadticker(newval);
}

function loadticker(ticnum) {
    var fticnum = add_commas(ticnum);
    var numheight=18;
   addticker(fticnum);
    if (ticnum && ticnum != 0) {

        var s = String(fticnum);

        for (i=s.length;i>=0; i--)
        {
            var onum=s.charAt(i);          
            $("#num"+i).attr('value',onum);
        }

        $(".counter-number").each( function() {
            var nval=$(this).attr("value");
            if (!isNaN(nval)) {
                var nheight = Number(nval)*numheight*-1;
                $(this).animate({ top: nheight+'px'}, 1500 );
            }
            if (nval==','){
                $(this).animate({ top: '-180px'}, 1500 );
            }
        });
    }
}

function addticker(newnum) {
    var digitcnt = $(".counter-number").size();
    var nnum = String(newnum).length;
    var digitdiff = Number(nnum - Number(digitcnt));
    if (digitdiff <0) {
        var ltdig = (Number(nnum)-1);
        $(".counter-number:gt(" + ltdig + ")").remove();
    }

    for(i=1;i<=digitdiff;i++) {
        $(".counter-wrap").append('<div class="counter-number" id="num' + (Number(digitcnt+i-1)) + '">&nbsp;</div>');
    }

}

function add_commas(nStr) {
    nStr += '';
    x = nStr.split('.');
    x1 = x[0];
    x2 = x.length > 1 ? '.' + x[1] : '';
    var rgx = /(\d+)(\d{3})/;
    while (rgx.test(x1)) {
        x1 = x1.replace(rgx, '$1' + ',' + '$2');

    }
    return x1 + x2;

}


</script>

</head>

Here is where the function is called:

<body onload="loadticker( '<?php echo $_SESSION['executed'];  ?>' ) ">

</body> 

</html>

    It doesn’t seem to me that it’s a jQuery problem. I would suggest trying to add your PHP code at the top of your code, even before you <html> opening tag.

    Try this: 

    <?php
session_start();  
if(isset($_SESSION['executed'])) {
    $_SESSION['executed'] = $_SESSION['executed']+ 1;
} else {
    $_SESSION['executed'] = 5754;
}

echo $_SESSION['executed'];

?>
<html>
<head></head>
...
<body onload="loadticker('<?php echo $_SESSION['executed']; ?>')">
</body>
</html>
