Counter out of whack

[HighHobbies.com]

This is my counter.php code:

 

<?php

 $counter_query = tep_db_query("select startdate, counter from " . TABLE_COUNTER);

 if (!tep_db_num_rows($counter_query)) {
   $date_now = date('Ymd');
   tep_db_query("insert into " . TABLE_COUNTER . " (startdate, counter) values ('" . $date_now . "', '1')");
   $counter_startdate = $date_now;
   $counter_now = 1;
 } else {
   $counter = tep_db_fetch_array($counter_query);
   $counter_startdate = $counter['startdate'];
   $counter_now = ($counter['counter'] + 1);
   tep_db_query("update " . TABLE_COUNTER . " set counter = '" . $counter_now . "'");
 }

 $counter_startdate_formatted = strftime(DATE_FORMAT_LONG, mktime(0, 0, 0, substr($counter_startdate, 4, 2), substr($counter_startdate, -2), substr($counter_startdate, 0, 4)));
?>

 

I want it to have 17,000 hits right now and count up from there and i want it to say 1,7000 Requests Since August 1st, 2003 and count up from there.

 

my site for tests right now is www.highhobbies.com/store

 

I had 17000 requests but i changed osc sites

Or can i just have the date on the left of the bar and on the right just say 17000 and counts up?

[♥yesudo]

in your database there is a table called counter which holds the figure and date you want to change.

I use phpmyadmin (came as standard for me) - check with your host.
