Another graphic counter example

Same idea as before but slightly different code .

Code:

<?php
//this is our file with the count in it
$mycounter = "./counter1.dat";
//our image directory
$images = "./images";
//open the file or display an error message
if(!($fp = fopen($mycounter, "r")))die ("Cannot open counter file");
//read in the count
$count = (int)fread($fp, 20);
//close the file handle
fclose($fp);
//increment the count
$count++;
//open the file
$fp = fopen($mycounter, "w");
//write the new value of $count in it
fwrite($fp, $count);
//close the file again
fclose($fp);
//generate our graphics
for($i=0; $i< strlen($count);$i++)
{
$imagesrc = $images ."/" . substr($count , $i , 1) . ".gif";
$imagehtml .= "<img src = \"$imagesrc\" border=\"0\">";
}
//display the graphical count
echo "$imagehtml";

?>
